I had the pleasure of photographing some interesting looking golden agers during my recent photowalks...
Old people have such character, each wrinkle seems to tell a tale...
I stealthily photographed this man from afar because of the grimace on his face. He gave a huge smile when I showed him his picture.
And here's a portrait of a lady who believes she's not beautiful and not worth being photographed...
"Old age is fifteen years older than I am." This quote by Oliver Wendell Holmes perfectly suits this octogenarian...
great shots. I agree older people have such interesting looking faces
ReplyDeleteLove them all, especially the golden oldies.Young people, yet unweathered show but basic emotions, whereas the old I've us a whole life story.
ReplyDeleteThis has got to be one of the top interpretations for this topic. I am impressed with the photos.
ReplyDeleteTruly great photos, Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGreat portraits...seeing your post after a long time
ReplyDeleteI find that older citizens make up the fabric of a town just as much as old buildings and places. Great portraits.
