Backlit Portrait of Woman Against Bright Window

A woman named Penelope is photographed in a dramatic backlighting situation, with bright windows creating an overexposed halo effect behind her. She is wearing a dark navy or black collared shirt, has dark hair pulled back, and wears small stud earrings. The image was shot with an 85mm lens on a Canon EOS 30D, a classic portrait focal length, but the exposure is heavily compromised by the bright window light behind the subject. The mood is contemplative and slightly moody, though the technical challenges of the backlighting result in underexposed facial features.
