youth and age

Best viewed in original size

Today I saw and photographed Irene who is 101, and Isabella who is 2. Irene was out walking with Laurie, her home health aide, and Isabella was having lunch at the Subway with her mother April and her mother's friend Anne. These encounters, within minutes of one another, helped me see that our life force has little to do with age. Irene and Isabella were equally radiant and filled with life. Can't you see it in them?

other sizes: small medium large original auto

A delightful setting of two images, each filled with life as it should be lived ... which is the message of your own life that comes so strongly through all your galleries, dear Patricia.

A lovely juxtaposition of similar lively glances from opposite sides of the age spectrum.

Awesome! This is soooo good! I love it and you are right....we are all kids at heart if we just let it come through!

No kidding, they could be the same person, 100 years apart...
