| i was wondering the same thing as someone else - is she part of the red hat society? this is an awesome photo with a great candid look. She does NOT look 73 for sure. love the lighting on her face. |

| What a wonderful happy expression on your mother's face!!! It is that wonderfully joyful & warm expression that light's up her face and you cannot help but to smile back. This is a wonderfully done portrait well suited for B&W presentation - although the color version might also be a wonderful one too with what I think is a red hat and what I imagine a colorful jacket to match the wonderfully warm, vibrant and happy personality that the model projects. Sharpness of detail is wonderful here from the textures on her hat to clarity of the eyes behind the glasses to the pattern on her jacket. My only critique here is that the feather boa/fur lined collar tones get lost in the tones of the background -they are too similiar. Perhaps playing around with channel mixer, a little dodging and/or playing with the brightness/contrast levels would make it stand out more. |

Is she one of those purple-red-hat ladies? They're a cult, ya know. LOL
This is a lovely, carefree portrait though...I love the hint of light from her top. |

| WONDERFUL!! A very vibrant, lively portrait! If your mom has half the enthusiasm you've captured here, she's a very young 73 indeed! |

| Your mom is probably ecstatic over what you put together for her. This is a great portrait and works very well in bw. Captured a really warm expression on her face. All mom's should be this happy. |
