Street portrait from Glasgow, Scotland.
Black and white re-edit of one of my early '100 Strangers' portraits taken in March 2014.
Captured with my old Canon 400D, Sigma 17-50mm lens and hot shoe mounted Speedlite, Shelly was number 16 in my 100 Strangers portrait project.
The colour variation of this portrait that I uploaded to Flickr way back in 2014 has toured the world as part of the Atlas of Humanity exhibition, displayed at major photography expos such as Photokina along with another of my 100 Strangers portraits of Naziyah.
This shot was edited solely in Lightroom. Her skin was flawless and the new tools in LR were perfectly able to remove a loose strand of hair from across her face.
Enjoy!

The 8th of March is International Women's Day which gives focus to issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights and violence and abuse towards women.
While progress has been made, with France making abortion a constitutional right just a few days ago, there is still a long way to go for equality and an end to abuse and violence.
Misogyny in our patriarchal societies remains rampant even today in 2024. This has to end and everyone can help by challenging misogyny when they see it.
Today I celebrate International Women's Day with all women and girls around the world. The 2024 message for IWD is 'Inspire Inclusion'.
I encounter misogyny here on Flickr fairly frequently too. Most often in the form of 'mansplaining' but from time to time in the form of abuse too. Most recently being told, "Dear Lord, please let this woman keep her big mouth shut until she knows whet [sic] she is talking about..." simply for pointing out that using copyrighted photographs without permission was theft. I reported that abuse to Flickr, naturally, but there is a lack of transparency in reporting abuse on Flickr and you never hear back if action has been taken or not.
Take care everyone.
