The theme here was shyness; she shook whenever the lense made contact with her eyes. We were out at the Harrington Hotel, and the place was so bustling with people during the day that we needed to wait till the sun set just to steal a piece of solitude from the city. Yet, the problem with the shaking and smiling and self-consciousness in front of camera persisted, so I said, "Turn right and just look down..." You can still see apprehension behind the threads of hair. Her eyes look vacant as if lost in thought, and I kind of like to imagine that the blurriness of the background reflects that. The backgrond is surreal, as if the world were in motion around her the way it was in motion within her own mind. But let's not get too poetic...yet...
