Ouch. This shot is a stab in the heart, and it took me *completely* off guard. Now fighting tears. It's obviously technically great with buttery bokeh, but all photography minutiae just become totally irrelevant when you look into those eyes. Yet I see so much strength there.
My very sincere thoughts go to her.
