Mrs Ecton and Sparky of Coyville

Mrs Ecton was preparing to go to a funeral She has lived in this house for 55 years. Before that she lived across the street. I saw no other people in Coyville.
I posted this in color years ago. T thought this was more in keeping with the town.

I do not get a warm fuzzy feeling about this lady or her dog. The word "intransigent" comes to mind. Maybe it's just me. Great photo though. ! V

She does look very stern. The sepia works so well here.

Great portrait of a strong resilient woman of faith - so glad she had a little dog for company. Perfect in sepia tones.

This is just exceptional Neil. Her strong character and faith are on display while the little dog watching from the other side of the tree is a powerful added dimension. Your treatment is wonderful. Bravo.

Great image of this older woman with bible at her heart. I am curious of the hard BW of this shot. BV

A terrific portrait ! The face and hands expressions tell a lot about the character. The little dog seems intimidated by you...Superb tones too ! BV.
