You are a tad good at these....how do you manage to work and produce this so small ?

Incredibly brave of you to do such a close up Marjorie. The reflections from the glasses are lovely and I like your rosy cheeks and eyes, which make you look so healthy and lively.

Clever stuff nicely done Marjorie. You’ll be focusing on one eye soon, there’s a challenge for you!

Excellent and so small too! I love the angle and the close up approach.
