The fantastic tortoise-like face of an old Japanese fella

There are several photographs on these pages of old, wonderfully character-lined, ladies. And this woman, without a doubt, is my favourite.

The nation’s men, on the other hand, don’t have quite the longevity of their female counterparts, but at the same time, they don’t do too bad. Like this fella for example. A man whose many years on the planet have left him with a fantastically featured face.

    He does kinda look like a tortoise! 😀 Hard to tell, though, if that’s the beginnings of a smile or a frown…..

      Possibly a frown Lizzy. The traffic lights seemed to take forever to change,..

      Don’t know who that is I’m afraid, so I shall have to take your word for it!
