Interesting how I simply overlooked the obvious! Here's a re-work, plus the original image. Thanks for the nudge!!
I prefer the B/W over the color version. It highlights the character in her face. I find the color to be a distraction, and takes away from that look.

Yes, I agree. The color version was my original raw capture, somewhat embellished. I knew I would likely convert to B&W, and spent my processing time there. Thank you for your insight.

Excellent - you captured so much expression. The b&w version overwhels the color.

Thank you! Yes, I think the same. The image captures my memory of her.

This is Ruth. She was a neighbor of my now deceased mother-in-law. She was German. She was an extremely warm and interesting person. I only had 30-45 minutes with her, and it left a mark. She graciously agreed to let me take her pic.
I agree that those bright areas are distracting. There is a ton of character in that face and you captured that very nicely.
