Hand in Hand
Hand in Hand was nominated by zandria to Pay It Forward.
Zandria said”
“This simple image of an elderly couple holding hands says sooo much.
You can see how much they love each other. How they are best friends. How they are truly content in life. How they have worked hard. How they value family.
It evokes an endless story of life and love. One that I hope to achieve with my best friend, my husband.”
Thanks a million zandria.

This is so beautiful. I love the intertwined fingers, and perhaps this is an old fashioned sentiment, but I love that the mans hand is in the position of leading his wife. To me that shows not just his love, but his guidance and support within their relationship.

You know Andy, I spotted this photo when I first signed up to red bubble and favorited it right away, and now realize I forgot to leave a comment to let you know how beautiful I think it is! There was a little competition of sorts called “PAY IT FORWARD”, set up by JULIE LANGFORD where you were to pick one favorite RB image , and I chose this one.
Timeless love captured so tenderly. I see this being my husband and I in years to come, and it is a lovely feeling. Well captured, Andy.
Andy Smylie replied
Thanks Zandria and to all other who have commented on my image.
This is one of my own favourites. Just a snap shot at the time but as you say it has a rather emotive element that most can relate to, no matter what age the viewer. I especially like the proportional size of his rather larger hands to hers.
Zandra, I did have a look at the Pay It Forward post at the time. Thanks for putting my image forward. I am so chuffed that you think it worthy in such a great array of talent here at RB.
Cheers
Andy S :)

We would love to have this image in the Good News Group – Sharing & Caring
Karen Tillotson
Any couple after years and years of their own personal history, that is still holding hands so lovingly, has got all the answers about how things should work…more people have to ask how and then carefully listen to their answers. Beautiful touching portrayal of lasting love and kindness. Great work!

Cheers
