A Wise Man by Ryszard Wierzbicki
There is something in the faces of elderly people that makes them very remarkable. Dignity, wisdom, time, and simplicity, these are the features you can read in those faces. The man photographed in this photo has brought my attention with his Dignity. It is a great benefit of contact with such people and their stories written on faces.
