Passing of Time I

Crop suggestion for this great photo.

Agree with the crop, it would make this portrait more intense, but nonetheless both version are good

Personally, I would hate to lose these details... but it's not my photo.

Thanks so much everyone for your comments.

Al, thanks for the cropping suggestion, I'll try it that way and see. It does takes away from that plant that hangs over head doesn't it?

Jose, thank you. She's got so much going on in her face. She's a rare find;)

Burrode, eloquent, yes:) Thank you.

Per Anderson, thank you. I was lucky to be there and to discover her sitting at her usual spot:)

.dale thank you:)
