Faces of Old People in Black and White Photography

Every Face in the following black and white photography list of old people is telling some story. If you look at these faces, not a single photo got a smiley face. There could be hundreds of reason why they are not happy and we should try not be a part of those reasons.

The definition of old people according to Wikipedia:

The boundary between middle age and old age cannot be defined exactly because it does not have the same meaning in all societies. People can be considered old because of certain changes in their activities or social roles. Examples: people may be considered old when they become grandparents, or when they begin to do less or different work.

The following entire collection of black and white photos has been photographed by Saeed Al Alawi and you can visit his photostream here on Flickr. Don’t have much to say except respect your elders and don’t give hard time to anyone specially old people like in these pictures.

  3. I love these old faces.  I have loved old faces since I was a small child and always felt safe around them.  They tell a story that you can read between the lines and are always truthful with you.  I wish more people would treat them like the treasures they are.
