This is Thingbat-Spoon. OK, not her real name, I've been calling her that for a decade, and it kinda fits somehow! When She doesn't have a handbag on her head, she looks like this. She very reluctantly sat in my favourite window light for this. Thanks Claire.
I agree with Jude (forties feel) and JHR . .HIYA CLAIRE!!! (see me waving vigorously at you?) . . the lighting, the pose, the softness ..wonderfully done . .you have a way, DM!

He's actually been calling me Thingbat-Spoon for almost two decades. Thanks for the picture David, although I do like this one better (less of a double chin, and the most beautiful dog in the world)!:http://www.pbase.com/image/13805667

This one caught my eye right away. Excellent pose and color treatment, David! Is it a crop? I think I'd be even a better portrait if you gave here a bit more room within a frame. Could you share you B&W technique?
Excellent b&w portrait, David. It has this 1940's air about it.. I love the pose.. and the dead-on look at the viewer. Well done..
