British photographer Craig Gibson decided to illustrate the similarities between children and parents with specific examples. He invited several couples of fathers with adult sons to take part in a photo project with the telling name “Boys And Their Fathers”.
Usually we are like our parents, whether we like it or not. It is also generally accepted that boys subconsciously want to be like their fathers. Armed with these two postulates, photographer Craig Gibson decided to arrange a photo session for the closest relatives - fathers and sons.
He took turns taking pictures of fathers and sons, choosing the same angles, and then, using a special program, superimposed one image on another. The resulting "general" portrait amazed both the photographer and his models. People who were not so similar in life found an amazing similarity in the general portrait.
