This is a fine photo. Sure there are some strong highlights (some would say blowout) but overall its the high contrast (along with an engaging subject) that make this photo stand out.
I love this! Age CAN be graceful and beautiful. I like your take on this challenge. I like the black and white conversion, except for the paper, it is too bright and draws the eye away from your subject. But otherwise, great image!
the over-exposed envelope and wrappings in her lap detract from this for me but the image of Great Grandma is wonderful and there is certainly a grace in living that comes through in the image 6
Fantastic shot. There is a hint of comedy, romance and nostalgia about this. The old lady perhaps about to send a letter to a loved one doused in her favourite scent. I really don't like the border but that is a personal thing. Must be one of the best in this competition
Good contrast with her being old and spraying on some perfume. There's a card and the box so I'd guess it's her birthday too? I like it. Nitpick, a little overexposed.
