My Mother

[thegreenegg]

I don't think I will tell my mom I posted this one. When she first saw it she did not like it because she had no make up on at the time. However, I think she has changed her opinion because of how much I like it. It was taken through a window (that's what accounts for reflection of light in the bottom which interestingly enough isnt really noticable when I printed it off) while she was filing her nails. Tell me what you think.

Ashley - I think this is a great portrait. It conveys a lot of character and soul. The hazy reflection is troubling... any way to clean it up in post?

Using a plug-in I just downloaded I made my mother's picture black and white. The haze is not so noticeable. What do you think?
