Challenge: Portrait Of The Elderly (Basic Editing)
Camera: Sony DSC-R1
Location: Thetford Priory, UK
Date: Dec 26, 2008
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 160
Shutter: 400
Galleries: Portraiture
Date Uploaded: Dec 29, 2008

 My mother-in-law during a moment of rest after an evening walk passing the ruins of the Thetford Priory in Norfolk, UK. The sun was really low and out of several shots I picked the one with catchlights in her eyes. The place itself, founded a millenium ago, is well worth a visit, judging by the remains, it must have been stunning when still in use.
Strangely enough, the colours seem to have changed as a result of uploading. The same picture on review from DPS is visibly "cooler" then the uploaded image in PS window. Any suggestions?

With these color tones I get more of a sense of twilight than I do sunshine - which actually works better as a metaphor IMO. Interesting expression.
