Faces of Puebla

by Dean Zulich

Wandering the streets of Puebla, Mexico, I noticed an old lady, who was kind enough to let me capture this portrait…

Equipment: Canon EOS 5D, Canon EF 24-70 mm F2.8 L lens

I LOVE pictures of elders. She has a beauty etched within the wrinkles. Thanks for sharing her.

Wonderful sense of light in this. It brings out the textures in her hair and face beautifully.

The fact that she gave you permission to capture her picture is a compliment to you. Your photo is a compliment to her long life.
