Nice collection of photos on the multiplicity of expressions of masculine fatherhood. The collection comes from the
Good Men Project and it seems like a positive way to begin the week.

Juan C. Gonzalez takes a photo of himself and his son flying through the air every single year. See more at Lime Fly Photography.
Tender, surprising, and brimming with love: these are images of real* fatherhood.
We asked Good Men Project readers what Real Fatherhood meant to them, and how it looked in their day-to-day lives. Here are some of the amazing photos, stories and tweets you shared with us during our #RealFatherhood campaign.
*”real” in this case = “real-life”, as in, not actors or media-created images.

Lamont holds baby Mya in the NICU. His wife Amie explains the type of father Lamont has been to their children:
“I’m married to a guy who used to sing Elton John’s “Your Song”, and read the classic version of Peter Pan to our dying daughter. He made a great Tink… Here he is holding Mya about 2 months before she died. He was going on probably less than 3 hours of sleep over 2 or 3 days, which actually was pretty common because he worked and then spent every waking hour in the NICU.“
