There is an old saying: If young people smiles at you, they want something from you. If old people smiles at you, they are complementing you. I think this is the case. You've done a great job in capturing the sweet smile of this old lady.
Your choice must have been especially hard, but this is one of my favorites of yours as well. From the hardworked hand to the smile lined face, it really speaks to me.
I ditto the comment that it must have been difficult to pick just one but this one is a classic. I love the character in her face and know that it must represent to you the entire trip. Great shot.

I can't imagine how difficult it must have been to pick a best/favorite out of all of the extraordinary photos you've taken during the year. I agree that this is one of them.
