A wonderful native American woman who visits me at work at City Hall every week. I think she's classic, timeless & beautiful!
While portraits aren't my "thing," I was happy with this one....hope the voters are too! Only took 4 pics total, outside on on bench...gave her $5 to go get lunch on me.

I think this image is a bit to contrasty, the shirt is a bit distracting too... vertical lines in the shirt, horizontal lines in the background. it seems to be over processed too, (just that her wrinkles seem way to dark...)
great expression; the contrasts b/tw her blouse, the bricks. her hair & the skin on her chest & her face work all well together; all the lines bring it back to her lovely face!
Wow, is her hair really that color? It almost looks green! The face is incredibly well lit, however, and I like the pattern choices with the shirt and bricks. 8.
