Well, it's very expressive...
Maybe not perfect, but very expressive.
(But very sad too, this woman looks very sad)

I usually take the picture, but than I need to decide if picture actually happened.
I knew it was very little light there, I also knew, you would be OK with honest opinion.

Galina, no offence at all, many thanks for comment. I do not have any illusions about the technical quality of this picture myself.
To give you an idea about lighting: it is taken with 300D and 70-300 DO IS lens at 235mm, ISO1600, shutter speed 1/15, f/5.6 (the widest DO aperture at this focal length). From these numbers you can see that I could hardly expect any technically better result, although I think that you see here a motion blur and not misfocus (my DO focuses like a charm).
So, the choice was to take a picture of this quality or do not take a picture at all. Now, was I wrong to take the picture? This I do not know and this is why I placed it on pbase.
