Eleanor

I took this for our FB group's challenge for this week. Today was b&w. It's a bit grainy because it was starting to get dark and I only wanted to use natural light so I upped the ISO to compensate. Also I had to use quite a long exposure which was a bit unfair as Eleanor found it difficult to stay still enough. But she was very patient and willing while I fiddled and made adjustments, bless her.

I think it works very well, with the light tones of her face and hands being central to the pic.

I think you've both done a terrific job to produce a nicely composed portrait 😊
