Unlike Dan and Wendelt I have to be content with snapping mature ladies.
This one was snapped as she was walking out the door to her 30 year school reunion.

This looks really good, Steve, if only a little dark on my monitor. That said, the level of contrast is good and the hair light really makes the portrait stand out.

Maybe its my monitor but the shot looks flat. Needs a boost in contrast.

I would tend to agree that a small boost in contrast and brightness would improve this image.

Aside form that I think it is a winner and your subject should be well pleased, something I have found is very hard to achieve with our nearest and dearest!!

I brightened the dear lady up a bit and agree that the image has a bit more punch now.

I think that my new monitor's calibration had changed a little as well. Spydered it yesterday and the reason for the dark comments was pretty obvious

Thanks for the feedback
