Self portrait taken in natural window light. (thought I'd get one more 40something shot...since I turn FIFTY next month! Yikes! LOL!) This was taken with a 28-105 zoom lens at the 50 focal point, reflector, and cable release...I was in close so didn't have to crop but I did find the need for some selective softening in ps! :)

Love the expression captured in your beautiful eyes.Cesar J. La Rosa July 11, 2007
Marie, this is a wonderful self-portrait. Almost ten years have passed since the other photo you posted here, but that light in those beautiful eyes is still there and I am sure we will still see it in ten years' time again, because beauty shines through the eyes of people that see the beautiful images they make and their soul speaks languages that we all understand. Thank you for sharing those beautiful photographs with us and for being our constant inspiration and support.Jolynne Woodcock July 11, 2007
