This is quick shot of a friends mom at the grandson's recent grade school graduation luncheon.

All ambient lighting... overhead spots with window light from far right side.

Minimal PP but heavier crop from FF.

You would have better luck posting it in the Photo Critique Section.

You did a very nice job with this picture. The lighting came out good for none studio work. There is a slight glair on her forehead that could easily be taken care of in pp if you want to. Too much emphasis is placed on the "perfect" picture. If this picture was of my mother, it would be a perfect picture. Nice work.

That is a very nice picture. You have composed well and also have brought out the pride she has for her grandson.

Thank you for your comments all. The forehead is a bit hot and I will play with it.

Both daughters love the photo of their mom, I at least didn't shoot her with a fork to her mouth!

You did a great job, jdubu….The lighting is just soft enough to cast highlights and shadow all in the right places….Good job….
