His mother also got out of the hugs, and the emotional moment was captured by the photojournalist of 24.hu, Márton Moss – so that Tamberi names this photo as his favorite of his wife.
“Márton, I saw a lot of your photos after the World Cup and they were all amazing, it was really hard to choose the best one. It’s a really emotional, deep photo, and I think most people never tell their mom how proud they are of her or how much they love her.
The moment captured by Márton perfectly conveys a mother’s love for her son, and how proud I was to experience such a great success with him. This picture means a lot to me, and I think it means a lot to those who look at it
said Tamberi.
Márton Mohos said that he doesn’t even have to explain what was in his mind when he shot that particular frame, because the Italian classic summed it up perfectly, and he called it an honor that Tamberi chose his photo.
