I would like to thank my daughter Sandra, who was very patient with this shot, it took more than 3 hours (probably because the lack of equipment) so I had to improvise all the lighting.
This one has been my first portrait, so I hope to do OK, I had a lot of fun (some times I felt frustrated because I didn't get what I was expecting) but after post processing I'm happy with the results.

great photo. Not keen on the border color though, it adds too much color to the scene and it's contrast takes away from the overall contrast in the photo.
Oooohh. I hope that didn't dry on! LOL What we won't do in the quest for a little imaginary ribbon! I wish I could bottle the creativity from this challenge. Yours is among the most creative. Good luck.
