Mitch, this is beautiful. Would you share your camera settings? I'm trying to learn to work in "low light" situations; this image looks as though it would be a good lesson. #8507463Joannie Bertucci April 03, 2010

Thanks so much, everyone, for your great comments. This is a favorite of mine, so I'm really pleased that you enjoy it. Kathy, sending you a note in a bit. #8511756Nikki McDonald May 09, 2010
Well you've really got me going this month, Mitch, with all these lovely entries. Couldn't decide actually so I said to myself, "Which one would I most enjoy having printed and framed in a room in my home?" and this one answered that question. I love the nostalgic mood the subject, tones and lighting evoke and the composition is spot on. I can see it in a bedroom or bath, of course, but equally well in an entry or dining room. Others I seriously considered include "Sorrow" and "Coquette" (I do have a thing about character study portraits like these); "Turning Point" (I think Katarina is right and this is a definite winner for you); "Basking" (great details, light, colors and especially expression); and "Formality" (this is the other one that I could really enjoy having in my home). Good luck. #8598858Mitch Spence May 11, 2010
