Great expression evoking her recalling some long forgotten memory.
I would have liked to have seen greater composition. The lampshade growing out of her head and the glass display IMO not good. I feel sure there is a better portrait there somewhere with this sitter.
Nicely captured, but shame about the colour cast. The object behind your subject\'s head is distracting. Don\'t like the glare in the reflection of the cabinet. 5
Probably would have rated higher if this were taken at a different angle, or if the hand in the foreground was in focus.
All in all, gotta love grandma :)
