She came home for the weekend so I was able to grab a few photos of her. This one turned out pretty well.
Still writing that thing, so back to it.

Beautiful like her mother!
We were on the Pantheon on Saturday, two weeks ago, with my daughter’s school class. We did miss Athena’s awesome statue by a couple of thousand years, though. 😀
I’m sure the statue would have done her justice!
Cheers from Greece.
The Vaseline lens is strong in this one.

It’s actually the “moderate” B&W glamor filter in the Exposure X4 program. The intent was to give it a 40s movie studio headshot feel.
Just gorgeous, John. My first thought was “Hollywood glamour.”
Lovely picture, lovely Athena. Good effects.
A lovely photo of a remarkably beautiful young woman. You, sir, are fortunate. But I think you know that already.
Best of luck with that project, hope it goes smoothly and that you are happy with the outcome.
Beautiful photo of a lovely young woman
Move over, cats!
40s Hollywood headshot it is, and what a knockout! Could easily have played opposite a Sam Spade type as The Doll With the Brains. Nice shot, well manipulated.
Beautiful.
Lucky you.
To have such a daughter? Yes. Yes I am.
She’s so lovely! I hope you enjoyed your weekend together…
