Canon EOS 7D Mark II, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens @ 70mm, 1/100 second @ f/5.6, ISO 125.

This week the black and white challenge is to do something with the human body.

My first (and pretty much only) thoughts were boudoir (which Melissa has basically forbidden me from doing, and doesn’t really fit my interpretation of the brief anyway) or something at football (but there was only one game this week and I didn’t go to it). Then it was suddenly Saturday evening and I had no ideas, when Melissa suggested to get someone en pointe and take some shots of that. After getting turned down by one sister because of no notice, I pestered the other sister (featured last week among others) and asked if she’d like to mess up her recently-broken foot some more. She was up for it, so we took her some lunch/afternoon tea and made her pose for me.

I had a few shots that I liked, but I picked this one after pretty much everyone said it was the best one. I’ve included my second (basically unedited – I would have done something about the door crack in the background) below.
