Contest Number: 124 Contest Theme: Portrait of a Stranger Lens: Sigma 50-500 mm Camera: K 7 Shutter Speed: 1/200s Aperture: F5.6 
Posted By: Richard B 13, 12-02-2016, 03:10 AM

This was taken a Ren Faire in CT. The background is a food truck. She was facing the truck and I waited for her to turn around for about 3 minutes. This was the first shot taken of her. She had no clue that she was being photographed. The next two photo in my camera were her starting to smile and a full on smile. Those are good but this is the best look in my eyes. This is a true Portrait of a Stranger who now I have come to know do to the Power of Pentax.

That's because you posted it in the contest and no one but you and mods, or admin can see it. Thus, no one will comment until voting time. Had you wanted comments you should have posted it in the Post Your Photos forum.
