Nifty photos of old people with younger selves reflected on mirrors. Found on Reddit, which naturally means it was uncredited until someone way down deep in the comments linked to Tom Hussey, the photographer (look under 'Series' and 'Reflections' for larger versions of the photos).

Wow, gorgeous.

Those are amazing, especially the nurse.

They're amazing photos, but they make me sigh.

Reminds me of Stan Rogers' "Lies," even though the photos are the inverse of what the POV character in the song feels:

"Is this the face that won for her the man
Whose amazed and clumsy fingers put that ring upon her hand?
No need to search that mirror for the years.
The menace in their message shouts across the blur of tears ... "
