Went to visit my mother for Christmas vacation in Canada. It was nice to her again, our last visit was over a year ago. I didn't want to lose the opportunity to finally get a picture of her. She hates to get her picture taken. After some convincing she agreed, but with no flash. Window light only. I think she turned out great. At almost 80 years of age, she may have slowed down some, but her mind is still sharp as a tack.

It is always nice to visit our relatives during Christmas especially when visiting our mothers (mine died many years ago.)
It is a very nice portrait of her.
