Hope in the eyes ..!

wow, am proud to be the first one commenting on this. Awesome portrait, nice lighting, proper BW and nice sharpness + great expression! you can feel the old ages and memories through her eyes! very nice communication between photographer and subject! 7/7

wonderful portrait

You have done an interesting shot that captures not only the textures of the skin and face but the soul of the subject. The b&w works nicely in this shot. Just enough texture in the backgound to make it not black but to also not distravt from her. The lighting is good but could possibly be pulled downwith selective burning just a little, except on her eyes. Very nice portrait.

Expressive eyes and portrait!

Hope and sadness I would say. Very good portrait!
