 This is my dear friend Jean. As hard as this might be to believe, she is 90 years old. She is a beautiful, kind and gentle spirit with amazing words of wisdom. She is probably the most beautiful woman inside and out that I have met so far....

Thanks everybody for voting and all the positive comments!

She is an absolutely beautiful woman. I love the tones and blues in this picture too. Nice bokeh effect in the background. Her earrings and jumper really bring out her gorgeous blue eyes. 10.

Great lighting (no lens glare) colors are soothing especially blue sky with sweater. Nice skin tones. Hair to her left a bit distracting. -9-

Great soft, warm light. You captured the kindness in her eyes and smile. Eyes aren't quite sharp enough.
