Another fantastic portrait, great and honorable, I saw the documentary where the photographer returned to find her after many years and he did find her
Georgia Doyle replied:
Oh I'm so glad you like it, yes I saw that documentary also, it was semi sweet/sad, as she had such a harsh look in her eyes...But it was fantastic he found her!
