This is an image of my mother taken when she was 16. I found it at her house a short while ago. I scanned it and removed the sepia tone and cloned some small blemishes out; other than that it is as it was shot.
Here she is a few weeks ago (now 80). Spotmatic, Tamron SP 90, Nikon SB28 Speedlight. Film was FP4.

Quite touching, Martin. I feel like when I look at the photos of my mother.
Ain't it funny how everything changes when growing old, except for the gaze?
Eyes are timeless.
