Jess

I took Jess off to Ikea this afternoon to buy her a chair for her desk here at home.  She's working hard on her dissertation and needs a more supportive and adjustable chair than the old dining room chair she currently uses.  

While we were waiting for the chair to come out of the warehouse I took this shot.  Jess wasn't very keen to have her photo taken and I couldn't persuade her to keep still.  I, on the other hand, don't really like the effect of flash mounted on the camera and so needed a slightly longer exposure time.  (Mainly because I had stupidly forgotten to reset the ISO after fixing it at 80 while playing with long exposures the other day).  

This shot was the best I could manage in the few seconds she allowed me to point a camera at her.  If I had stopped to reset the ISO the moment would have been lost.  It is slightly too blurry, but it does capture something of her impish good humour.
