Great portrait Troy, wondering how often Pat has to water her hat? :-)

Don't get emotional on us Troy you have a reputation to protect. All say it again anyway though. Fantastic portrait. -Doug

So full of personality. Her lovely smile and even hand position compliment the mood that is being set my her hat. Excellent work Pat and Troy. -Doug

Wonderful portrait of Pat, Troy, and I love the hat and knowing that she performs in plays. I volunteer for a little community theater, but not as an actor! Well done and nice PP! :-) CJ

With its flowers and halo effect, the hat fits her kindly expression and sweet softness created by the lens' shallow dof. -tv

Thanks Rod. You are right. She is happy with "whatever" I do and cheers me up with her laughs and optimistic attitude.

Lovely portrait of your missus Troy, you have captured a look that tells me Pat wouldn't make you do the cooking when you're naughty:-)

Thanks Penny. We're still packing. Move date starts on Mar. 30. Packing and moving ourselves. "Everyone" ought to be required to move at least every 10 years :-).

Such a lovely portrait - even the hat, while it may be a silly hat, adds color to her glow! How's the new home? Penny Street
