Being limited in my photographic skill, natural light is the only light I know how to use reasonably well. Shot on my Leica M2 using my Summicron DR.

Does a portrait of my dog count? I took this with my Pentax SL and 50mm f/1.4 S-M-C Takumar lens. Taken in an apartment where we lived for a few months while our house was being built. I sorely miss the north-facing windows of that place!

The best camera is one that still works!

This was shot 30 years ago with a Yashica 124G. Film was probably TMX. I remember we were at Polk and Post Streets in San Francisco waiting for our pizza.

Keith: Superb! So good to see another photo where the natural light is such a major part of the photo. The portrait is defined by the soft unidirectional light coming in from the window. You certainly understand what the theme here is about.

Havana, Cuba - woman holds her grandchild while her sick husband sleeps facing the open window. They live on the 3rd floor of a building with no water pressure so much carry buckets of water for drinking, bathing, and flushing the toilet up the steps.
Or, do you want your portraits to be happy scenes of beautiful people?

Impressive shot, Bob. Do you have more pictures of them? When did you make the picture?

Erik: thanks. Undoubtedly, I shot several frames of this family but I have always edited first and then scanned only my selection. So I choose this frame from a strip of negs on the light table, scanned it and moved on as I have no use for second place images. I have a good collection of images of normal Cuban people in their native environment that I made over a number of years, this in 2011. They are published in my book, "Vignettes Cubano" and on my website at Cuba intro

Cienfuegos, Cuba 2011 - This 23 year old lives with her mother in an 8' by 20' wooden house. Her 42 year old mother also has a baby which appeared to be the same age as her daughter's. They survive on social benefits and the kindness of friends and neighbors as both are permanently unemployed.
