Thanks for your comment, Gabriela. I'm pretty sure the woman and the child are used to it. They are reindeer herders, and frequently they'll take a small calf into their teepee as a pet. After it grows up, they send the calf to its herd, but it would come back for a treat now and then. Because the comtrast was so great, I spot-meterd off the woman's head. The slow shutter speed made it hard to hand hold, hence the blur and the bright overexposed light. Cheers, Slava

You were on time there.
Good chance with a beautiful light.

This is unbelievably beautiful! I wonder HOW you got this take???? It almost doesn't look real! But so touching, so soft, so dreamy that light coming in with the reindeer. Maybe the woman and child thought they had a dream (?!)
