I'm not fond of the color cast here, and it seems like there's a lot of emphasis on the painting more than the beautiful great-grandmother, at least with the color. The lamp is also distracting for me. It's a wonderful pose of the great-grandmother, though and I'm sure she will love this. You're making me miss my great-grandmother.
I would love to have seen a more "close-up" shot of her. This just has too much distraction in the background, and the color feels "off" to me for some reason. The picture on the wall has good color, but everything else looks kind of odd.
Love the grain and the desaturation, it really adds to the image. I wish she didn't look like she was in the middle of saying something. I really like everything in the photo except the Christmas lights in the window. I like how you kept the color in the painting...nice touch.
I like this, her look and the way she is holding her hands; however, because most of the colors are muted my eye wants to wander away from her to the colorful painting.
I love the setup here although cluttered, just emphazises the world around older people, perhaps in smaller lodgins, concentrating all their much prized belongings..
I find the color in the picture on the wall to be a bit distracting compared to her very pale skin. I like the way you captured her hands though in this portrait.
