Description

This is my Grandma. I wanted this to picture to properly represent her. Its more colourful, more alive and happier than portraits of older people generally are.

Older people still smile, laugh, make jokes, have play fights and watch silly movies. We seem to be amidst a culture that fears old age so much a lot of us don't give the elderly the respect and correct treatment they deserve. My Gran's still the same person she was when she was 21, what difference should a few laughter lines and a pension book make?

Update: My Grandma passed away last November, she be missed so much.

Model: Emily Miles

I give permission for :iconditchthelabelclub: to use this image in their gallery.

This is a lovely photo. May I use this picture on a site I am developing to tackle the problem of loneliness for old people in Scotland. www.sona-scot.com. I'd appreciate your feedback. I'm also happy to accept photos or recommendations from others. Thanks
