Despite the frigid wind chill temperatures (2 degrees F when this picture was taken), Sahraa insists on going outside, although we made her stay in until noon.
I was trying to take a picture of her through the CLOSED kitchen door and an iron gate covered with mesh, but she somehow noticed me and got up and turned around. So I decided to get dressed for the cold and go out on the deck to photograph her. She resigned herself to it and let me take a few shots.
Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
