potter's hands

I was privileged to take photos at my mom's pottery class tonight. My mom is 91 and still does pottery every week. Her group is so friendly and talented.

Fantastic B&W capture! Are these your mother's hands?

@kimdavis no she doesn't do the wheel anymore, it wasn't really her favorite plus hand strength at 91 isn't great. my sister who passed away had the talent on the wheel in the family. I have several of her pots but never took photos when she was in class. my mom is the white haired lady in my other shot titled mom and terry : )

Brilliant photo - love portraits of the hands - they say so much about the person.

@jocasta her hands and posture really show how hard she was working to get it right...she is a great student, so willing to learn from those with more experience.

Awesome shot! And how wonderful for your mom to be doing pottery at 91! I hope I am still painting at that age. Great shot and I love it in B&W. Sorry for all the comments, but your photos are amazing.
