Portrait of mum by brigette

Portrait of mum

I took this photo of mum's hands 7 years ago and it remains one of my favourites - especially now that she has gone.
Grateful to have a bit of an archive as today we are back into lockdown.. for 72 hours.. but really who knows at this stage if it will be extended or not.
A beautiful memory - a beautiful capture ♥

This is priceless. I so wish I had thought of something like this. My Mom has been gone for only a few months.

That's a gorgeous way to remember your mum. My dad's not in good shape at the moment, and I'd love to get a similar shot of his once very strong and capable hands. I can't bring myself to do it though.

@jamibann Oh you should! My mother only died last year.. but I'm so glad I did this 7 years ago.. It wasn't super planned.. but she was happy for me to take photos ... Ask him.. at worst he'll just say no.. at best you'll have a lovely keep sake
