I grabbed this shot, killing time, in the train with a wondurful mixture of cold window light and warm tungsten or halogen.

Wide open, aperture priority. Focussing so close gives you a lot of room to play with depth of field.

Even though in color it's a pretty monochromatic image, I chose a toned B&W to lay even more emphasis on the softness of it all.

The hanky, the slumber, the skin, the focus.
