This is a candid shot of a lady that captured my eye on the riverwalk because she reminded me so much of my mom who I lost a little over 2 years ago. I don't know how much photographic merit the dpc voters will think this photo has, but I just love it for emotional reasons.

I think its a lovely portrait full of thought and honor to her.
So sorry about your mother, I'm sure you miss her. The lighting and detail in this portrait are lovely.
It's a wonderful portrait (that one you know already) of the very beautiful lady. I gave it a 10 and I think you were totally robbed this time. Better luck next time.
Color/exposure/contrast: 1.5/2 Grat palette, good contrast, little bit desturated @ medium luminance. The title would go for a mor optimistic color saturation Focus/sharpness: 2/2 Perfect Idea/creativity: 2/2 Not hard to obtain but creative though Theme: 2/2 Fits Framing/appeal: 1/2 Good framing but I am not appealed :S TOTAL:8.5
A great shot, very nice lighting and skin tones. I love the play on the clichè given the facial expression and the dark background. Well done on a great capture and good luck with the next challenge!
Awww very nicely done... and she really looks like she is seeing the better side of life.. you did a fine job in the composition and in photographing this shot!
A truly wonderful portrait that also fits the challenge. IMHO this is a perfect shot. Well done. I couldn't imagine this not getting a ribbon so congratulations in advance.
Now I really loved this saying and you have captured it so perfectly.....I really love this fine portrait of this gentle lady..... Top score from me with a "10".....
