A life seats somewhere in the world. The feeling of time passing by... you captured it in a magnificent way.
Well done! (I like the likeness of the wall and skin texture).

Wow! The serenity of this shot is just amazing. Colour tones, composition and subject placement, all brilliantly captured. I like your framing as well Greg. But mostly I am stunned by how you managed to turn this scenery in such an interesting documentary shot. The open door that might reveal she is the inhabitant, the little subjects surrounding and the difference in textures (the wood, the stones, the wall's plaster) it all adds to the story your image reveals. My 7 out of 5 Greg!

The strong face, the simple pose, the setting and the harmonious colours ... all contribute to a splendid portrait.

Wonderful portrait! She is someone who has lived a very hard life. You can see it in the expression in her eyes. This is one of the best portraits I have seen here.

This is great, Greg. The colors of the wall remind me of one of your Marocco shots from a few weeks ago. The shot looks posed, but that's not a problem for me, because her look is amazing, very Eastern European, something you don't see in other parts of the world. Incredible, really well done!

Greg this is a very beautiful shot. The honesty and beauty you have captured in this remarkable woman is inspiring. The grain of the shot also adds another element to the shot as well.
