Photo taken during a Holy Week procession in Casco Viejo, Ciudad de Panama

The challenge was to take a picture with enough light in her face without too much light from the candle. I used a 50mm f1.4 because I didn't want to use a very high ISO, and I wanted to use natural light.

Photo processed with Capture One.

I like this capture but one question. You said "her face" rather than "his".

This is a nice capture, however F1.4 is so narrow the tip of the nose is pin sharp but the eyes have been left a little soft. I don't worry about high ISO as I'm sure just like LR and DXO I'm sure capture one must have a Denise function to reduce grain? Nice image well seen.
