Artist's Comments

The sun shines brightly but its still cold, a gust of wind blows sand through the alleys of an old Tibetan temple, an old lady sits in a doorway spinning her Zhuan Jing Tong all day long, sometimes a friend comes and sits by her side and they talk and laugh, all at the same time growing older, past 105 years of age.

I love this image....the way you captured her face and teh motion of the game. She looks so intrigued by it. I adore older people with those deep lines in their faces, it's so beautiful. Tells a story. Wonderfully taken, no criticism.

She's beautiful.. =] She must be a child at heart...

I've always wanted to meet someone of that age.. and then i would ask them countless questions. Things probably revolving around "what was the world like back then" or "How has the world, the country and culture you live in has changed?"

..Man. History's crazy.

Beautiful shot for an equally beautiful subject.

She certainly looks healthy despite her age and er.. wat? spinning her Zhuan Jing Tong all day long? Makes me wonder if this is her secret to long life! That look and smile is unforgettable.

Nice work. You have managed to capture the essence of her youth in her.
:iconpurplethirst:
congrats on capturing her essence of life. I'm amazed at her skin, it appears to glow like polished leather.
