Description
A dying man..a woman who loves him very much and knows what is coming..that is the essence of this quite old scanned photo. He didn't need hold to her arm as much as she needed to hold his.
I post this in remembrance, not for quality of the old photo. I did not take this shot, someone now gone from my life pushed the shutter.

thank you for sharing - the grip of her hand on the fabric, her expression - poignant and inspiring
your write up makes me sad :-( A great act of rememberance for that person, I hope everything is well. This is a beautiful image. Emotions caught in this shot are hard to recreate for the purpose of photography, so you know the pain is real. Beautiful shot and sorry for your losses :-(
You hit the nail on the head. Very insightful and touching. That is the essence of true love. God Bless You.
Many things in this old scan . . . Emotion, dignity and sadness too . . .
Very moving, dignified and yet sad. Pathos! A great capture beyond words.
Touching. Excellent.
Her face is so expressive...she looks so sad and resigned. :-(
sad story and wonderful capture. b&w looks justifyable here
A good capture - and despite the quality a moving image!
Quality imports little, this picture is SUBLIME and so touching!
A superb photograph, Tom.. not taken by you. I know very much the need of a strong arm to hold on to.. so does my man.. A beautiful image, it speaks. A gentle, loving remembrance. The deep need of each for the other. Incredible feeling and beauty here. God Bless and HUGS. Diane.
Very moving photo.
Wow. Very touching. I can see the sorrow on her face. How genuine.
