Love the shot. Reminds me of my grandfather, whom I lost when he was 93. I really wish I could go back and have one really nice picture of him before he left us. I know your wife will treasure this photo.

Default Those eyes!

Very inspiring shot. It rings close to my heart as I'm planning to photograph my maternal grandmother (age 79) and my great-aunt (65) next Monday. They are sisters and with the weather the way it is here, I expect to have to shoot indoors.

You did so well with what you had, I hope I can come halfway close to yours. Thanks so much for sharing the photo and the story.
