If you go to my Flickr page you can see more of her the link is in my signature. She was reading something I just do not know how to read in Japanese!! Thanks for stopping by.

Yes I do believe they are her jammies!!! Next time I'll shoot just her jammies!
Thank you for your comment.

I the top one there is way too much headroom and we don't need to see her pants at all, in the bottom too much empty space on the right.
With older people, hands, eyes, smiles, wrinkles are all wonderful material, but you have to be careful that the lighting is flattering and that we see them in a loving way, not a superior way.

Sandie,
Thanks for your comments. I adjusted the photos as you can see. I do see what you are talking about where it shows her being "looked down" on. I still like the photo but will adjust it. On the second photo I dont understand I don't get what you are trying to say with "to be careful that the lighting is flattering and that we see them in a loving way, not a superior way"??
Let me know what you think on the adjustments. Thanks.
