Nicely done Paco!! I'm not good enough to give critique, but I know I like the photo!!

Leon, thank you much!

Looks good.

If you were to nitpick the things I would do are:

Crop to a ~4X5 Ratio from the top down.

Clean up the catch lights in her eyes.

Spot out the earing that is visible.

Great suggestions, Kevin! This above is SOOC plus resizing and some sharpening. Just loved her eyes!

Wonderful shot. Love the long, tight crop. Love the squiggles in her hat playing with the squiggles in her sleeves.

Fun with sweater and hat; reminds me a little of the last session I posted. : )

Thanks for your comments, Mark!

I wish her left hand was up and right hand was down so her pose was similar to yours. :)

Nicely done.

You have great images of your family. Do you print and display these in your home or office? They deserve more than just to be on a harddrive.

Simply awesome!!!!

Always great work.

Can't say much about the shot, except ... that hat looks super warm and she looks like a natural in front of a camera. ;)

I see you gave your kids a break too. :)

Andy, Dagger, Ray, thanks for the comments and encouragement.

Andy, we do have some 5x7 and 8x10 portraits around the house, which we change every once in a while, but I may print some larger ones. Truth is that we have art on the walls that's much better than mine

Ray, my wife is really good in front of the camera, but she has to be in the right mood, and I guess she was this weekend. Thanks!

Beautiful image!!
Like Kevin mentioned, I think this image might look better in 4x5 ratio.

Thanks for the kind words and the suggestion, Phanee. I agree!
