Marking the Passage of Time

This photo is from a series entitled "Generation" by German photographer Frauke Theilking that observes the similarities and differences between generations. Each photo pairs a parent and child, either a mother/daughter or father/son combo, side by side.

I'm the carbon copy of my mother except that she has blue eyes (I have green). You can really see the passage of time when a mother and a daughter stand side-by-side.

It reminds me to make the most of every moment.
