Silver woman - Unstaged photo set

@qwerrie · 2025-09-26 07:13 · Colour / Black&White

I present you few portraits of a silver woman I papped in the park (this is from the Wednesday walk I shared yesterday). Was sitting on a bench at the distance of just 1,5 m, and was tempted to take her portrait - she was so into her reading job. I wonder if she's an editor, or corrector? Maybe she borrowed this pile of printed papers, like, she moved to the park her office duties? Never know, I did not ask... instead I just pressed trigger and adjusted my position a few times, to get the best angle on her face. I liked this unstaged moment of deep thinking so much!

I used my fave fixed-focus macro telephoto lens (Sigma 150mm) which in my opinion, performs portrait job pretty well. What do you think?..

Totally, I managed to make eight captures - today I share three of them, which I consider to be the best takes.
