Dolores

Very sweet shot.  This is the kind of photo a family would love.

It's a great way to photograph a person and to reveal more about them, and it also leaves me wondering what their own thoughts are when looking at their former selves from so many years ago.  You have good lighting to really put the viewer's eyes on the woman.

Great tones and first of all a beautiful lady as well on the picture as on the chair! Fantastic tones all over! Congratulations Nancy!

Best regards!

She is still beautiful and your portrait is amazing!

Very nice.

Beautiful portrait ! 

Warm regards,

Beautiful lady! Beautiful portrait!

Love this portrait within a portrait!  Dolores looks as beautiful now as she did in the framed photo!

A warm & touching portrait. One can get a clear glimpse of a young Dolores, one still young & expectant as to what lies ahead for her in life...but the focus is of course on the now matured Dolores, who lived it all and shows us now...

(I wonder if you've ever seen this portrait by Carlos H..? -- imo, one of the very best and most sensitive portrait photographers on PN -- Your photo instantly reminded me of his, when I saw it)

Best, Marjolein

Nancy; There is a lot to be learned about a artist by looking at their work.

Such a wonderful and sweet capture! I wish I had thought to do this while my mom was still here as she was beautiful in her youth and remained beautiful in her older years. This photo will be treasured for decades! Very well done. Thank you for sharing. :)
