My grandmother turned 80.

I haven't touched my camera in weeks, I just haven't been inspired or motivated to take any pictures but since my grandmother turned 80 years old this past weekend, I decided to brush off my camera and try to document this excellent milestone.

She may be 80 years old, but still goofy as ever or well that might be the booze talking

But I'm pretty happy with the way this photo came out enough to share it.

I guess this is what photography is all about? Screw A.I. BS.

Nikon Z6II + Z 35mm f/1.8 S

A lovely portrait! You captured a fun moment and she looks happy.

Being inspired to take a photo, whatever the reason or occasion, is what photography is all about, yes. No need to force it - you did well here, and enjoyed it!
