1.86 - "Needs Work" 

Candid of a woman waiting in line for a restaurant at the U District Food Walk in Seattle this past September. I was waiting in line behind her and a lot of other people, practicing street photography with my telephoto lens, and I think I got a little lucky with this shot. I really like the expression the subject is making, something between bored and wistful, tired yet energetic, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Afterwards, I offered her the photo, and she gave me full permission to use it in my portfolio.

Gear:
Fujifilm XT4
Fujifilm XF 55-200mm f/3.5-4.8 @ 200mm f4.8, cropped in a bit

Post-processing:
Minor retouching/hair management and light/color adjustments in Lightroom
