Captured on a family farm that’s been passed down through three generations (and now home to 500 free-roaming chickens) I was struck by the quiet contrast in this image. A strong farmer softens completely in the arms of his daughter. Her kiss and embrace rest easily on a man built for hard labour. It’s a moment of stillness at the end of a long day on the farm.
