If Paul can have a selfie then so can I

[Guest]

Well, not strictly a selfie, all taken today by our daughter, Nadia with the XZ-1(You can see where she gets her talent from, right?)

YOUNG and OLD

When all the world is young, lad,
And all the trees are green;
And every goose a swan, lad,
And every lass a queen;
Then hey for boot and horse, lad,
And round the world away;
Young blood must have its course, lad,
And every dog his day.

When all the world is old, lad,
And all the trees are brown;
And all the sport is stale, lad,
And all the wheels run down;
Creep home, and take your place there,
The spent and maimed among:
God grant you find one face there,
You loved when all was young.

Charles Kingsley (1819-1875)

Very nice Mark, I see Nadia get her photographic skills from you then.

Thanks Paul, although more likely from her mother who was in her day a highly sought after portrait artist.
Nadia's uncropped 'warts-'n-all' portrait of me was shot over coffee at a local bakery (which gave me a swollen head!) - we're not too precious about these things ; we grow old as gracefully as possible I'm afraid.

Nice selfies Mark.

Yes lovely portraits.

Thanks Conor and Phill.

Enjoyed the poem (sigh) - and the love of hats must be in the gene pool.
The little fellow looks like a "chip off the old block".

Yesterday I missed a pic of Nadia by a second when she rose from the table - just wait 'til I'm able to show you her get up

Nice! thanks for posting these

Thanks Eva.

It's like karate, John - he has to earn the black beret that recognises a high level of affability, good looks and intelligence ...

Thank you Conor and Greg - it's just simply that I have a true appreciation of my own excellences, you see.

That astute observation earns you a black beret, Greg ! ...

Edit: Your good looks are assumed and granted, sight unseen.
