I did not vote in this challenge I rarely vote for the challenges that I participate, I just feel nervous about any bias on my side affecting my voting; I appreciate very much that you do). But, if I was to vote, it would be a 10 for me. It is complete for me. It is such a delightful capture. And lights and tones are just perfect. I wish to take as good a picture of my mother as you did, soon. :-)

Good Day Jason! Wonderful work!

Lovely composition, DOF and lighting, though his ring would benefit from the sparkle being subdued

Splendid. And she does not look "elderly" enough to meet the challenge at all. :-) Huge congrats on the new personal best! And best of all, you have a GREAT picture of your mom - excellent work.

Jason, you DID IT! A Personal Best! What a tribute to your beautiful mother! I personally think it is still quite underrated, but I'm so happy that it is your proudest and highest rated photo on your profile page. Her smile is radiant. I think I would love to know her!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I like how your lighting here. The shadows on the balls make it look as if the there is an imaginary triangle there holding them in place.

Nice work on the face. Not sure about the drop. It's a bit to center for my taste.
