A good solid face full of character... the wrinkles and creases add to the quality of the woman's features... if one could only read those lines... imagine the trip that one would be taken upon. Well done. Regards, Oksana.

Very nice and strong portrait. Well done.

Exceptional; it speaks volumes.

Superb work...perfect!

 

I really love it!

Amazing portrait: the look and the face of the old woman are fascinating

Fabulous! Her expression, the crossed arms, the monochromatic color scheme - just right! B :)

thank you all for your kind words. She was kind enough to let me take several pictures. Throughout the shoot her facial expression remained the same as if she was contemplating something from her past but her eyes were constantly changing mood. Given her age and where she is from, one can safely assume that she has seen her share of horrors in her days, but in this picture there is still so much determination in her eyes, which is what attracted me to her in the first place. Thank you all again for taking time to comment. Regards - michel

A cogent portrait

I can't believe that i missed this terrific image. Congrats.

 

I have done a black and white version for you to see.  If you were to submit this BW version and i saw it (not usually viewing portraits) I would rate it a seven.
