Challenge: Black and White Portrait III (Standard Editing) Camera: Olympus PEN E-PM2 Lens: Olympus 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 II M. Zuiko Digital ED Location: Waxahachie, TX Date: Nov 11, 2017 Aperture: 5.6 ISO: 640 Shutter: 1/100 Date Uploaded: Nov 12, 2017 Add photograph to your favorites Add photographer to your favorites	The description didn't say it couldn't be a group portrait. The pretty girl with perfect makeup kind of takes away from the WWII look of the photo, but I think it still works until you look at such details.

The processing fits so well with their costumes. They are truly in character.

Are those Soviet WWII uniforms? WWII by the armament, Soviet by the helmet and epaulette shape.

I smell a Spiffer at work. This is nicely done. I guess a group portrait is still a portrait and sepia is still B/W but I'd imagined you're getting dinged on these fronts?
