Sue - a photo on Flickriver

Sue

            At the time, I felt I hadn't quite nailed the technicalities, except perhaps for a 'decisive moment'.  Now I perceive and value that I did succeed in capturing the character of the sitter...  

The object she is holding came from Vienna and is a weight for keeping a book open flat*.

The superb lens was sufficiently wide open that the earrings began to transition into bokeh.

Petri FT EE, F1.8 55mm, Kodak Plus X, indoors but natural light.

* There is now a correction for this in my 2020 Hindsight album.

Taken on: January 1, 1973
