[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Over a week ago we went to an old town close to Chengdu. The town itself is nice but looking a little bit like the other old towns... fun but nothing special except that you can rent bikes (go-carts) and bike around. Now most people stay in the town but we left the tourists behind us and left for the country side. The smell of pigs, rice and tea fields. And we were lucky to see them picking the tea.
So here a portrait of a tea picking woman.
Cheers
David

The composition works very well here -- lots of room in front of your subject and yet still closely cropped
Fine details

mooie plaats waar die theevelden te zien zijn.Ik vraag me af hoe die vingers het zo lang uithouden bij de pluk!

David, qua kleuren en compo: chapeau (ja, zo groot als die van de dame).. maar wat haar gezicht betreft zit je wel aan onderbelichting, vrees ik.
Setting op Av, en dan de flash aan: geeft perfecte e-ttl invulflits!
Je onderwerp springt er wel echt uit hé, tussen al die bladeren.

Very nice work here David. Beautifully composed, good use of the DOF and an effective capture of the concentration on your subject's face.

Hallo David.
Excellent looking picture of the woman in field.
I've seen them busy in Sri-Lanka. There they have big baskets at their backside and working in a tempo hard to believe.!
Thanks for showing here.
Groeten van Jan

Mooie compositie David !
Ook mooi is dat je de vrouw echt ziet " plukken "

Eén " but " :
Voor mij hadden de kleuren iets " frisser " mogen wezen.
Kan ook aan m'n monitor liggen.

Groetjes
