I agree that the window in the background is a little distracting but I like the expression and can really relate to the situation. Done too many 14hr flights to and from home. Also I think that the boredom isn't the worst part of a long flight. I personally get really frustrated and snappy in the last five hours of a flight so I like the fact that your model looks almost aggressive.

Good idea! Your model's expression looks a little more serious than bored, but the context is great. I think just about everybody can identify with the situation. I'd expect this plane to land near the top, if not ribbon. 9

she looks ticked that you're taking her picture. background people look bored, though.

Actually, I find the background of this shot more interesting than the foreground. Too bad it's you she's bored with, huh?

You've managed to capture a genuine bored look and the B&W seems to work really well here. Nice shot.

After all the over-the-top, melodramatic, face-in-hands pictures this one is refreshing. There's a quiet boredom in her expression that I like.Message edited by author 2005-03-31 16:47:30.

A shot in a plane is usually a hopeless snapshot. However, this is excellent and absolutely perfect for the challenge. Lighting is good and the framing excellent. Great stuff.
