Back to childhood
Old ladies on the swings. Photo was taken in the playground and the scene was easily distracted by odd objects or colours in the background. This photo was no exception, but Ho Sau lived in So Uk Estate and could easily locate a high vantage point. The branches formed the foreground and the framing was more concise. Swing is a childhood object; in the picture the two old ladies seated on the swing making one wonder if they were talking about their past: they were regretting how they never tasted childhood after many years of toiling, and hoped for the reversion of time.
