I look forward to a walk to my favorite plaça, a light evening meal and the awaited 22:00 movie which lately makes me feel sorry to possess a television set.
Oh what worries I don’t have and if I did I probably have none compared to the person who owns this pair of feet.
For those who follow my posts, I go crazy for portraits of hands and I don’t do enough of them. I will make a memo to shoot hand portraits more often.
As I look at this elderly person (hmmm … I think the youth of today might consider me elderly! No, it's true) he is distinctive in posture and dress and that alone makes him a commanding subject.
Barcelona, 2008
But as I look further down, I see the wear and tear of time having passed.
I noticed his one curled toe that curled my hair with questions. Would he sit at his favorite plaça and delight in a mouth-watering evening meal?
Would he watch a television movie that made him wonder why he was watching at all?
Today was a good day for me.
hmmm
