Reddit user Afdlips reinterprets father figures with his new series entitled 'Small Dads.'
While tradition holds that the father is usually one of the most respected member of the family because he is often a figure of security, this series shows a completely different perspective. The fathers have all been shrunk down to about half their size, making all these family photos incredibly awkward and ridiculous.
Each photo that has been altered in the Small Dads series is an unusual take on the awkward family photo, changing the viewer's perspective of the family dynamic simply by changing the size of the father figures.
