thanks  Pierre for taking time to  look at my photo and give nice comments

Thao

Great portrait - a lady who has lived life and still maintains an appearance of serenity and peace.  I found myself staring at this image. Regards, Steve

Thank for your nice comment Steve. This lady is a great model. She showed her emotion in all photos without needing any instruction for posing.

My best regards,

Thao

Great photograph - if it were to be available for rating, I would have given it a "6" With a little more depth of field around the neck and metal ring - it would be a "7".  I appreciate that unlike so many photographs of elderly ethnic people today, you did not over emphasize the wrinkles and textures of the skin by over post processing - contrast and sharpening.  I like the darker background which makes the blue stand out more and eliminates background distraction.  Of course the model is fantastic but you allowed her to be the subject to the maximum by not showing off (distracting) with your Post Processing skills.  Wonderful and thank you for sharing.
