What’s Your Preference?

I took these photos today after helping my father-in-law unpack boxes in his new residence. My wife had made some tea, and was talking up a storm with her father, who, by the way, is a retired Anglican minister, and married us
3 years ago. I like these shots because he was in his favorite chair, and very relaxed. He is quite hard of hearing so I managed to take a number of shots without him knowing. I want to enter one of these in our club monthly theme contest, which is called "Window Light". What do you think? Which one would you pick?

Tea Sipping

Contemplation

Smile

Paul, I like the second one. I like the pensive look and the folded hands.

I like #2... I want to know what he's thinking about!

He looks like a lovely man, Paul. I like #2, especially knowing he is an Anglican priest. It is prayerful.

I like 2 as well, but they are all good.

Thanks everyone. I had a feeling that #2 would take the spotlight. I also like this shot as he was in deep thought at the time as he was talking to Mary, my wife about her mom. Her mom has alzeimers (spelling?), and seems to be worsening a lot more in the past while. I am so amazed how well my father-in-law is getting through everything he has had to face, and to do so with such dignity. love, and respect. He is truly an amazing individual.
