In this research we intend to follow a different path in order to use the picture for the enhancement of daily life and for prospecting. The objective of the research was to investigate the meanings produced by seniors photographic act about time and memory, emphasizing the possibilities of photography while exploring the future. Photography workshops were conducted with two groups of seniors in the city of Londrina, once a week for 2 months.
