I'd prefer cropping out the lampshade - but very nice image overall. 9

Wealth of age and knowledge. Thoughtful photo.

This is a lovely photo. Not sure that without the title I'd think of 'Wealth'. First thought may be 'Wisdom', 'Wise', or even 'Content'. Looks like she is watching her grandchildren play on the floor and is pleased/amused (hence the small smile).

Good choice going with B/W, works well here. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Great Portait. Love the DOF and shadows well used. Great shot. :)

This could also be a wealth of knowledge too. I really like the idea, good one. I even like the pose, almost as if she's thinking of all the things past in her life.
