Nicola

This is Nicola, a friends Daughter. She was really nice to pose for me knowing I wanted some practice shooting portraits but she wasn't really comfortable doing it. She doesn't like her photo taken and she developed a fit of the giggles due to nervousness. I managed though to get a couple of fair shots of her. This one she loved after i'd given it an aged sepia treatment. She said she could 'live with that'. It's a little soft in focus but i think it adds to the aged look.

I do not know of Nicola is more beautiful or your camera settings and sepia made her so. In either case, you are a good photographer and Nicola is beautiful.
