This is one of those shots that can say a thousand words....the depth of emotion in her face is captured very well in this photo. I can only imagine the stories she would have to share.

I never get enough of photos like this. The character radiates from this photo. It's amazing.

WOWSERS! I am speechless...totally stunned. When this loaded, it literally threw me back in my chair (seriously). After looking for a while, I got my wife and made her check it out :-) I could go on and on about what I like about this one, I mean on and on. The title here is not needed, but yet it compliments the image without being pretentious. Composition, focus, lighting, everything just superb. I'm sure I will revisit this amazing photo many times. I go now to mark the favorites box and score a 10, thank-you.

Excellent composition on this portrait of a woman who has experienced many years. Frame is closely cropped to keep attention focused on this lady. We see the roadmap of her years and look deep into her eyes. The red around her eyes makes me think that she has been crying. Also the look in her eyes, to me at least, holds so much sorrow. The poise of the hand is as such that it speaks two things. One it is raised to the heavens above in a posture of emploring "Why?". The second is of pulling the hand away from the face after spending time reminiscing about the past that will never return. This portrait invokes such a response in the viewer that makes us stop and look upon this woman.
