BEAUTY

“This photo was taken in May 2024. My husband and I visited Japan. It was the first travel we had done since COVID and we wanted to experience a culture different from our own. This old tree in the Kenrokuen Garden in Kanazawa shows a Japanese cultural tradition of beautiful gardens. This tree is valued for its age and natural beauty but is also shaped to appear sculptural and elegant and is supported in order to preserve it for future generations.” (Female, 76 yrs, Australia)

“Today Matters – One Click at a Time,” initiated by Dr. Sumita Chauhan, is a photography project for older adults using mobile phone cameras. Often a photo carries emotional and psychological meaning beyond just the image itself. It can evoke memories of places visited or lived, helping to reconnect with personal history as it did with this participant. A photo acts as a kind of visual reminder that can support orientation and nostalgia, making places feel more meaningful and easier to remember over time.

“SUNSET”
“A very memorable sunset from Herne Bay pier, when I wanted to say "Look!" to my late husband, who so loved sunsets.” (Female, 73 yrs, UK)

Sometimes a photograph becomes a gentle reminder of shared silences or pleasant conversations connected with happy memories. It’s more than a photograph for this participant-it’s her way of holding onto him a little longer and honouring those moments that shaped so much of their life together.
This photograph is part of a project for older adults, “Today Matters – One Click at a Time,” using mobile phone cameras developed by Dr. Sumita Chauhan. Besides self-expression, this project was able to encourage the participants to capture images that held personal significance and at the same time, sparked conversations about past experiences tied to the visuals.
