You can't see it in this image, but there is a space heater blasting at me.

Probably the only way I can pose comfortably in the winter, even indoors.

A close side-profile portrait of a dark-skinned figure standing in heavy rain with head bowed slightly forward, long wet locs falling over the shoulder and back, the side of the head partially opened into exposed biomechanical ear architecture with brass-toned plates, fine wiring, and compact mechanical assemblies integrated cleanly into the skull line, wearing a dark textured garment with a large circular metallic shoulder plate catching diffuse reflections; rainwater beads across skin, metal, and hair, emphasizing slick surface tension, wet sheen, oxidized metal, and dense textile weave, with the background reduced to a soft urban blur of pale rectangular light and grey atmosphere that anchors the figure in a damp exterior setting without distracting detail, lit by low overcast ambient light with soft frontal spill so the brow ridge, cheek, nose bridge, metal edges, and raindrops hold a subdued gleam while the far side of the face and lower garment sink into shadow, asymmetrical vertical composition with the profile dominating the left and center of the frame and the shoulder plate anchoring the right foreground, eye-level camera, 85mm lens, very shallow depth of field keeping the temple, ear mechanism, and near facial plane sharp while rain streaks and background lights dissolve into creamy blur, graded in muted graphite, pewter, olive-grey, and warm brass with restrained contrast and soft highlight rolloff for a tactile cinematic editorial finish.

moody medium close up portrait of a young woman in a charcoal hooded cloak, damp strands of long brown hair framing her face, ornate layered brass neckpiece and delicate chain circlet across her forehead, head tilted slightly upward as if looking toward a soft light source above, fine raindrops speckling the fabric and catching tiny highlights, pale stone architecture blurred in the background, overcast daylight with gentle top front illumination and subtle shadow under the chin, 85mm lens at f-2.2 for shallow depth of field that keeps eyes and jewelry crisp while the hood and background fall smoothly out of focus, natural skin texture with slight sheen on cheeks and nose, muted cool color palette with warm gold accents, centered vertical composition with her face in the upper third, cinematic grounded photorealism.

extreme close-up portrait of a woman’s face, macro lens at f/5.6, focusing on a single blue eye framed by cracked red and teal paint, dry freckled skin, and a weathered wooden headdress with feathered accents; shallow depth of field isolates the central eye while capturing intricate surface detail; soft diffused daylight casts ambient fill across the face, enhancing flake textures and creating a mild falloff gradient on the skin; foreground edge spill and specular bloom along moisture highlights on the lips and paint ridges; composition cropped aggressively, subject off-center for visual tension.

Photo showing multiple yellow spots caused by refraction through water drops. Only the drops in the middle part of the photo are in focus and show some reflected light, but no yellow spots. It is the out-of-focus drops on either side that show the phenomenon. Watermark identifying photographer as Geneviève Laurin.

Some mornings are worth getting up early for.

Low-perspective view of a scattered group of tree trunks and the ground around them, which is covered in fallen leaves. The trunk of the closest tree is in focus, showing its gnarled texture, while trees in the background are lacking in sharpness and generally out of focus.

Not the thickest trunk, but the thickest one in this grove, at least.
