93/365: C is Curious.

My little cousin, in her playhouse. Sitting outside of it, I shot a few frames with a 70-200mm lens...What I love about this frame is the light: it's all natural, but the way it hits her face is like something you'd sculpt in a studio. A directional but soft light on her face from the open sky above, and soft rim lights on the sides of her face from the little windows on those sides of the playhouse. Reminds me of how Irving Penn used a large tent with removable panels to achieve studio-like control over natural light, in remote places around the world. Not that I had that kind of foresight. I just thought it was a cute shot.
