The Party's Over by chejja

The Party's Over

When I was in New York, I was able to join my relatives in celebrating my cousin's 95th birthday. This is another cousin's grandson, all packed up and ready to go home at the end of the evening. My 95-year old cousin is an amazing woman! She lives alone. She has done years of volunteer work. She has taken classes in enameling, Japanese brush painting, and she has recently signed up for a six-week course that's all about color. She goes to the ballet and the opera, and she's a prolific reader. It was such a privilege to be able to celebrate this milestone with her and the family.
Celebrating someones life who an inspiring person is wonderful, when they are 95 it is more so. Nice black & white capture

She sounds very special. And this is a sweet candid portrait.

Darling shot of this young man. When I grow up, I want to be like your 95-year old cousin. Glad you got to celebrate with your family.

@randystreat I had to laugh when I read your comment because that is what my other 64-year old cousin says about our amazing and very active 95-year old cousin, "I want to be like her when I grow up."
