[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This old lady did not wanted her photo to be taken, she said she did not look well in photos, but finally I managed to convince her. Personally, I like her sad expression and the combination of light and shadows...

This is a good portrait with a a beautiful contrast with shadows and light. Excellent composition with the balance of dark and enlightened areas. The sharpness of the glance and the pose of this old lady make a so engaging portrait. Very beautiful! I like it much! Annie

This is an amazing shot Andreea! Very gritty, like hard street photography! At first I did not like the light across her chin, but the more I see it, the more I like it, as her expression is very much in the shadows here! BW works excellent on a shot like this!

Ziua buna de la S,
frumos portret, excelent prezentat.
O intreaga istorie poate sa ne povesteasca. Dupa cum arata ... a trecut prin multe si a vazut multe.
Felicitari pentru ca efortul tau de a o convinge a dat rezultate.
O duminica placuta,
Adrian

Hello Andreea,
You must be persuasive enough that she allowed you to take her portrait. The b&w format is appropriate for the theme. Indeed the interplay of light and shadow is good. A fine expression she's got, she looks like a sincere loveable person. Best regards...
