I have of course heard of the Council on Aging. What was news to me until a few months ago was that the Southern California Council on Aging has, for the past few years, had an annual photo competition entitled Aging as Art. What a fantastic theme! A friend of mine who is in healthcare forwarded a link to coasc.org and alerted me to the competition for 2022. I opted to submit one of my favorite photos from my 14 Days in Great Britain Documentary Series. As with many competitions.. I submit.. assuming nothing, and move on. To my genuine surprise, last week I was notified that my image had been awarded Second Place in the Professional Category! It is ALWAYS thrilling to be recognized, and this one was particularly rewarding because of the theme and content.

Hop over and see all of the winning images that celebrate who and what we are as we get older and wiser!
