Artist's Comments
This is the first in the series I have decided to call "Family Profiles".
Starting with the oldest. This is my grandmother photographed at her deceased sister's house. We were clearing the house for things, and I shot this while she was looking out the kitchen window probably thinking about her late sister. I like how the light accentuates her face and features and the little smile on her face.
The second shot of this series, can be found here.
It is a little noisy in the shadows, I know, but that was the only way I could shoot this one without using an external light source. Shot with natural light.
Great shot, hampered as you point out by the noise in the background. Just a suggestion but when i have problems such as this, i spend a few minutes with different brushes to blur the background. This would be easier with this shot because you could use the magnetic lasso tool and then apply a blurring filter. Apologies if you didn't want to know this.

No no no. Thanks for the suggestion! Hadn't though about that. I'll give it a go and see how it turns out.
Again, thanks.
