Getting old leaves its clear signs and marks on the human body but it's at eyes level where age manifests itself the most. For this lady however, getting old is marking her all over except her eyes. She's 110 years old and those eyes are still capable to radiate youth and life! I was blessed to spend some time photographing her while enjoying her humor and vivid curiosity. A perfect example of an old body with a young spirit.

Rodrigue,

 

Quite an example of encouraging vitality - a strong portrait!!! -  Thank you for sharing it!

 

Encouraging vitality is the right description Iduna. I was and I'm still amazed how sharp, vitalized and funny that old lady is! I think I'll have to go back for more.

I have been working in a nursing home for some years and I learned many, many things from the elderly. I loved to teach them painting and clay sculpting. Some of them had real talent. Looking at your great portrait makes me remember those days.
