Magic water by susale

Magic water

My get-pushed-challenge this week By @mcsiegle : to make a photograph of someone who is older. Ideally they would be 60 or over. If you absolutely can't find anyone who is at least 50 years old, then make a picture that portrays old age in some way.

This lovely lady lives close to me, I´m so envious of her flowers. I´m pretty convinced that she waters them with some magical water -it really can´t be just regular water cos that´s what I use for my flowers and they all die :D

For the record; I´d really have loved to take portraits of elderly people but unfortenately it´s so hard to find people who are letting me post their pics in internet. Some hocus pocus to make a booring shot to appear a bit more interesting maybe ;-)

I love the fact that you have photographed this lady in a way that highlights something that you admire about her. And the bit of special effects adds some fun. Bravo. Mission accomplished.

@susale oonkohan mä sit kukka :)
January 13th, 2014  
@janim No jos sä puhkeet kukkaan, kun oot saanu annoksen vodkaa, niin ehkä sä sit oot, ku mä en ainakaan vielä oo tavannut ketään ihmistä, joka paremmaksi muuttuis noitten kirkkaitten ansiosta, ite ainakin kierrän kaikki tiukat kaukaa.

@susale no kohtuudella tietty, ei liikaa saa kastella ... eikä kyl tuu oiken juotuu juurikaan kun ei haluu livetä treeniohjelmasta yhtään. En kestä sitä morkkis+krapula -kombinaatiota ku on paha olo ja ei pääse salille vaikka vihossa lukee MAVE :)
January 13th, 2014  
@janim No ei siinä mitään, jos kohtuudessa pysyy :) mut eipä se alkoholi kauheesti muutenkaan tohon yhtälöön kyllä sovi. Ite oon tipattomalla tammikuulla, joka jatkuu taas näillä näkymin sinne maaliskuun loppuun, jos ei nyt jotain pakollisii "kissankastajaisii" jostain ilmene. Tsemppii treenailuihin :)

@susale kiitos! Eilen tuli just enkka leuanvedossa, 5minsaa ja 43 toistoo jeeee :) Kunhan saa jouluna tulleet pari kiloo painoa alas niin sit 50 toistoo olis mahdollinen.
January 13th, 2014  
@janim Wow, kova tulos ja onnee enkan rikkoutumisesta :) Vähän on ikävä tota salitreenii, se oli niin kivaa ku pääs eteenpäin painoissa, BP:ssä saa vetää samoilla painoilla viikosta toiseen, sen vertas kovii ne toistomäärät, et ei niitä ihan joka kerta nostella mut parempi sekin kai, ku ei mitään ja paikat kuiteskin kestää sen, ni me sit vaan pumppaillaan :)

Love the procesing
January 13th, 2014  
This is wonderful! I love what you've done with this photo. It's monochrome but it has a warmth and sparkle to it - fav.
January 13th, 2014  
To think, I almost qualify as "older". I'm going to go cry now.
January 13th, 2014  
@kaesebiscuit Oh honey, I don´t think anyone under 60 is elderly, so you (we) still have some time before we´ll be classified as such :) :) :)
