Description:

This fascinating and thought-provoking photography book portrays older people and moments in their lives. The B&W photographs show ordinary people, in ordinary situations, which are seen across the United Kingdom every day of the week. People go shopping, catch buses, sit, talk, walk their dog and simply look at life around them. These images capture brief moments that reflect the hopes, uncertainties and often mundane nature of lives that perhaps, look back rather than forward. A thoroughly rewarding visual portrayal of an often neglected sector of society. The pictures are keenly and imaginatively observed and invite the viewer to re-appraise their own attitudes towards the lives of others.
