Seen in the Civic Quarter.


I wasn't feeling particularly well today (an upset tummy plus tiredness from yesterday's long trek), so was not really in the mood for taking pictures.

I was almost going back, defeated, when I spotted Saeema from afar. I approached and asked for her picture. At first she was not keen, claiming she was camera shy, but after I showed her my previous pictures she said OK.

I tried several straight-on portraits but they didn't work so well, at least on the small camera LCD screen, so asked her to turn slightly for a half-profile shot, which you see before you.

Saeema works as an Admin for Leeds City Council, but is looking for something better.

I wish her best of luck with the job search.
