Just spinning

I met this woman spinning at the medieval fair. When I stopped to ask if I could photograph the entire group of older people in the tent came to discuss digital photography versus film - a delightful experience
How lovely! She looks happy to be photographed.

Fantastic capture of this woman. How funny that she's dressed in medieval times outfit, and talking about photography and technology.

I am somewhat biased as I am a spinner myself! This is beautiful. Did you get a shot with the wheel spinning and her hands drafting the yarn? She could still have looked at you while doing that.

Stunning shot, that vignetting really makes the image stand up and yell at you.

Great find!

Beautiful shot. Love the vignetting. What an amazing outfit she is wearing too. I took a photo of a woman spinning wool at Tocal last weekend and I will put it in my Friday people shots in a couple of weeks. Mine isn't as good as this though.

@ethelperry Thanks for the idea. I didn't get more of an action shot, but will have to remember to try that next year at the fair. It would be a great shot
