The photo club that I’m a member of tries to do something nice for the senior citizen’s in a nursing home. They ask that we donate a framed print in 5 x 7 to probably 8 x 10 format so that they have something in their room. I’m just at a loss as to which one to mount.
Please take a moment to over the following photos and vote which one would be suitable to donate as a gift.
Any input or help will be greatly appreciated.

A senior woman might prefer the rose, while a senior male might go for the boat scene. My personal favorite (and Im not a senior citizen yet) is your last one.

I'll bet that a beautiful sunset like the one with the boat will be a winner, both with females and male senior citicens.

Good luck!

I agree ! Put the focus of the viewer on that beautiful sky.

Any of these images except the first, will be appreciated. The first is to much like a postcard.

i would probably go with the sunset boat. it is a bit more of a scene and could potentially evoke some fond memories.
