Old Friends

Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 24 April 2007 in People & Portrait.

As I was walking I saw this group of elderly persons and I noticed the smile in their faces, I wonder how long have they known each other, how many times have they gathered to eat lunch in that place and what kind of stories can you hear from them.
This photo is dedicated to all my friends around the world, God bless you all!

I bet they're street-buddies for at least half a decade. Gathering and chit-chatting are their hobbies. If you get around parks and markets in the morning you'll see a lot of scenes like that.

@aaxan: Thank you aaxan, I saw many of them in the parks as you mentioned but this group in particular caught my attention!
