What a great photo, Jennifer! I agree: housework is the most boring work on the planet. A friend of mine decided to start a house cleaning business -- so the only right thing to do was give her some business to get her started. It was the first time ever that I paid to have my house cleaned -- but now -- shoot -- I'd pay triple and think it was the best money I ever spent :) Your mom played the part so well, and I bet she is looking radiant over your blue ribbon :)

| Congrats on your blue, Jennifer! I had a similar concept in my head for my old "Bored" shot, but could not pull it off, at least score-wise :). Merry Christmas! |

My mom would laugh. She has age spots and her eyes are light blue. I love her aged skin....I tell her that all the time. Thanks for the comments. |

I don't know if the image is of a bored person, or a pensive one.
But the image is fantastic! And I love it!
Wonderful work Jennifer! |

| This is wonderful, Jennifer. It has such an honesty to it. I think you captured her perfectly, in a pensive moment. I have to agree about housework - ICK ICK ICK. |

| A marvellous image. the tones and composition appeal to me a lot. I just don't see what you gain by adding that border though |

| Bored and apparently unhappy about it. Lots of detail in that face - the clarity is startling. Very well done. |

| Excellent composition and detail. Great use of shallow DOF too. Contrast etc great. The best thing about this image is that you're drawn to the face, and the expression which scream boredom. Beautiful job with this. Well done. |
