I was attracted to this photograph because of the high contrast, and the elderly people in it. I like how the object in between them is very white, it balances both sides of the frame. It also kind of separates the scene, because the woman on the right is making a different expression, and the plates are set up differently than on the left side. I love the way elderly people look, they're inspiring to me, because they've lived such long lives and have seen so much throughout their lifetime. It steers me in a direction i would i like to go in, because i would like to get the chance to shoot the elderly, and hear their stories.
