Adele is my friend, a 93-year-old lady (she was 90 when I took the photo) who's very alive, full of interests, curious and willing to experiment with technology and social media. She's got her profile on facebook and likes to be in touch with her friends all over the world. However, technology sometimes betrays her and she's at a loss trying to come to terms with difficulties and connection problems. In this photo she was struggling to overcome such a problem and her expression of helplessness and defeat was so tender and moving that I couldn't help but trying to freeze it in this photograph. Of course, afterwards I helped her restore her laptop functions and she smiled at me in gratitude.
