    It was supposed to be eerie:-)
    And she's always serious, so this is one honest portrait:-)

    Thank you!
    Funny that you mentioned the dynamic range. I developed 5 images from RAW (-2EV..+2EV) and tried to merge them in HDR.. PS2 said there is not enough dynamic range. So I had to blend them manually :-) Glad you like it:-)
