June, 2016 Runner-up: Reflections of my Past
Contest Number: 118 Contest Theme: Reflections Lens: Tamron AF 17-50mm 2.8XR Camera: Pentax K-3 Shutter Speed: 1/200s Aperture: F2.8 

I finally got my mother to pose for me. She had a wonderful career as a nurse and nursed six children along the way. She is now 92 years old and still living in her home of 58 years which was built by my late father. My father made the mirror used in the photo. I am so proud of her for being who she is. She is still very independent and still always concerned for the welfare of her family.

I am genuinely moved by that photo.
It is a very well composed picture and the expression on her face is wonderful.
Extraordinarily well done!

Beautiful. How did you create the appearance of youth in the mirror?
