A photographer has found a novel way to keep his grandmother occupied and entertained - by dressing her up as a superhero. Sacha Goldberger's 91-year-old grandmother Frederika dons a cape and spandex suit to become superhero alter-ego 'Super Mamika'.

Sacha, 41, had the idea four years ago after his Hungarian-born grandmother became lonely and started to show signs of depression. Sacha said: "It started as a way for us to spend time together. We have always been very close and she would often stay with me. I was wondering how to find a way to be with her and make her happy."

Though she was a little reluctant to start with, she soon warmed to the idea of her new role as a super-gran. Sacha said: "The first pictures were of her wearing a red helmet with a white star on it. I asked her to put it on and she started to pose. I told her she was great."

With the first photo session in the bag, Sacha uploaded the results online and was astonished by the response. He said: "We looked on the computer and the people saying she was fantastic. One person even said that they wished their grandmother was like her. Now, every day she asks when we are going to do some more pictures." He said: "She doesn't understand the reaction. For her it is fun to do the pictures. Some she likes, some she doesn't care about. She doesn't understand why people are so fond of these crazy pictures."

Since then, she's been photographed scaling buildings, riding on the wing of a plane and speeding along in her 'Grandma Mobile'.



...The photos are created using a mix of real-life studio techniques and computer wizardry.

The photos are created using a mix of real-life studio techniques and computer wizardry. Sacha added: "Everything is as real as possible. But I also use Photoshop to make the colours look stronger, more like you would expect from a superhero scene." Some scenes rely on Sacha superimposing his grandmother into the photo.

'Mamika' - 'Little Grandmother' in Hungarian - has amassed over 2,000 MySpace followers and become an Internet sensation. Far from being lonely, she's now used to being the centre of attention - a team of about 12 people work on each photo session, tending to Frederika's make-up and costumes. Sacha said: "Everybody is looking at her when we make a picture. I think she's been an actress all her life."

Frederika is also a real-life hero - she helped to save the lives 11 people during WWII when Hungary was invaded. Along with Sacha's grandfather, she helped some Jewish friends to shelter from the Nazis. Frederika was born in Budapest 20 years before World War II.
