I love this face it tells a story of the years of work and life, it would be true blessing to meet and talk with her. Her stories would be awe inspiring!

Beside its excellent composition and incredible detail, this is on the most soulful portraits I've ever seen on VB.
It is deeply moving, everybody on VB needs see this image at least once.
It should serve as a reminder to everyone, to cherish their elders while they are still with us.
Congratulations on such a magnificent portrait, it is one you should be extremely proud of.

Location
I took this photo during a photo trip to a Thanlynn township, near Yangon.Time
The day was overcast and the time was around 4pm when I saw this old lady on the street.Lighting
I used natural light to take this shot.Equipment
Nikon D750, Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8.Inspiration
When I saw this old lady was selling foods by the lake for feeding fishes, I was interested by the texture of her aged face. I tried to have a few conversation with her and take some shots under a tree.Editing
Post-processed in Adobe Raw and converted into B&W in PS 6. After conversion of B&W in photoshop, I used Nik plug-in Details Extractor to enhance the texture of her skin.In my camera bag
I usually carried Nikon D750 and Sigma 24-70mm lens in my bag. But for some photo trips, I additionally carried Nikkor 70-200mm lens and Nikkor 16-35mm lens.Feedback
Always look around your surroundings when you arrive at new place, there always have chances to take great shots.
