Portrait of a mum-to-be. 1961

I like this portrait: with its strong diagonal lines, eye contact with the photographer, out of focus background, and bygone atmosphere. Then again I might be a bit biased as the subject is my mother, Ida Cornick, when she was a bit younger (the year is 1961) and the photographer is my father, Michael Cornick. The setting is most probably in the county of Somerset, England.
