amemait:spiffymuffin:hohentai:Dads jumping next to their daughters is Japan’s latest amazing trendThis is so funny and cute omghello I am going to share some information with you that may or may not have been shared already due to the number of notes, but in case that isn’t the case:this isn’t like a meme or anything like that. the link explains that these are from the photographer yuuki aoyama and are “all massively random and brilliant and Japanese” but they’re actually not random at allthe reason this person got a funny translation for “solaryman” (”sora lehman”) is because it’s not an actual word. it’s sora + salaryman. sora = sky. the photographer explains that these salaryman dads are heroes “leaping toward the sky,” and showing their individuality in this momentit is a really sweet tribute to his late father, who was a salaryman. in his description of the project he talks about her respect for him and the burden that salarymen carry. there is a quote in the beginning about how these salarymen who are viewed as being this “uniform” type of person, are still certainly someone’s hero and have their own individual wit and sense of humorso yeah it’s a beautiful project done by a guy for his father who is his hero, filled with meaning and sentimentality and tbh it’s making me emotionalI was using those feelings -- source link
