This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge hosted and curated by @monochromes.

I am happy to be alone but not lonely, I enjoy my time being alone and do my things by myself. But I can not handle being lonely. Alone at home doing my things and at the same time still communicating with friends and family is better than surrounded by people but one still feels lonely. Take a deep breath and try to connect to other people. Do not let the lonely feeling stays inside of you longer as it should have been already.

Greetings and hello everyone in the Black and White community, Its Monday and another day with Monday Blues. How are your days? I hope all of you are doing great. Today I want to share another black and white studio portraiture of Daphne. This was a very different concept that I usually do. It was a very low key photo session. This concept was requested by Daphne herself and I agree to do it. It was a very challenging photo session. No strobe was involved in this photo session. I did all the shooting using an available light. I had to boost up the ISO and lower the shutter speed of my camera below my usual setting. These are some of the good shoot that I had during the photo session.

These was her closeup shoot. I am very satisfied with the shoot. I had to get a very steady handheld of my camera during these shoot. The noise was high but I think it really added the mood into these photo. We really took longer than the usual time to get in the zone. She had to find a music that she can relate to deep emotion. The photo session took about two hours but only the last ten minutes that we had a very good shoot with the tears on the cheek plus the facial expression. It really worth the wait.

I am really impressed of her, she gave me goosebumps during this shoot. She really made her feeling alive on the shoot.
