Against the Light

            A portrait  done in the deep shadow. That makes it very difficult to control the light without additional lighting. I did not want to use any artificial lighting, so this is a result. We may say that on pure technical level this photo is subpar, but I really like the atmosphere and softness it is made off. I, kinda, like end result.
