Photographer's comments:
I took this photo with the idea to obtain a "fashion portrait", to describe Silvia's beauty and personality with some fashion element in the frame. I used the landscape-horizontal disposition as a reference to the cinematic frame.
The lens used is my Tokina 70-200mm f/4, I've a great feeling with this instruments, I like its sharpness and beautiful transitions with out-of-focus areas, and its reliable autofocus.
