Thanks Lea. She was by herself and she knew I was taking pictures. I used a
21mm and had the camera pointing at the window which was deliberate because
I wanted her over to the side because i could see her reflection in the
window, so I feel lucky to get the image I hoped for.

Yes cropping is a possibilty although many times I like to try and capture
the overall scene so elected not to crop.
