              [Pics] Reflections: Portraits of the Elderly as They Once Were

              rl [Pics] Reflections: Portraits of the Elderly as They Once Were My eye recently got pulled towards “Reflections”. A photo series by Tom Hussey, where he portrays the elderly as they reflect on their younger selves in the mirror. This is a wonderfully done series that gives you pause to think, about the passage of time and the lives we are living.

                Love the concept, beautifully done.

                This is nice!

              • David Parrott

                Completely evocative. When pictures speak to the viewer deep inside, this is to have succeeded. Color me moved.

              • Steven Hyatt

                How beautiful. I love it. Very well done Tom.

                So many people showcase images, assisted by photoshop, as a magic trick to show off. It’s beautiful to see how certain techniques can create powerful stories.

                WOWWW!

              • http://www.facebook.com/ericcgould Eric Gould

              • Victoria Li

                Amazing. Visual representation of how much the elderly in our society have experienced and can teach us. Best thing I’ve seen all day. 

              • Amy Anderson

                This is so great! I work in a nursing home and many of my residents have alzheimer’s — one of my guys doesn’t see himself when he looks in the mirror, he thinks he’s looking through a window and seeing his good friend

              • Rachel Edgington

                The last one really got me teary eyed since my grandma is a nurse and it’s becoming painfully aware of how frail and old they are getting.. 

              • http://www.facebook.com/premmukherjee Prem Mukherjee

                This is one of the coolest photo ideas I’ve seen in a while.  great job!

              • Martinhambleton

                A wonderful idea, very sympathetically executed.  Once again, the simplest idea turns out to be the best.
