G'Mornin' Aram! They tell us that keeping our brains sharp ("exercised") is one of the best ways to ward off dementia. Your Father-in-law looks as if he's taken that advice to heart! I really like the first shot (5726), but I find the, rather more obvious, converging verticals and rather small subject a bit distracting in the second. Still, as Tina says, these will be shots your family will treasure, in the years to come. David. > My father-in-law, at almost 91, always has a puzzle going on the dining > room table.
