With elderly subjects it is often appropriate to communicate their relationship to the world around them. Whether that be peace, war, love or loneliness, try to communicate the essence of the person’s daily experiences.
Again remember that you are not merely taking a photograph but telling a story. Tell it like you see it.
The photo above communicates an undeniable sense of loneliness. It may not be the most pleasant of subjects but there is a strong sense of truth to it.
Elderly people don’t want anything from you except your time so try to give them the respect and time they deserve. Remember, after few years we will be standing in their position.
Love this image with hands it portrays the care that is shown between the elderly and the young .the aged wrinkled hand place onto the younger hand works for me.
