Well, sometimes for political reasons, one must leave one's wife and mother
of the son in the shot.

However, after trying as a vertical, for  compositional reasons, I felt she
belonged too.  I had tried a much tighter crop, but that only made the lamp
more prominent.   In the end, I just used the shot as it came from the
camera.
