Hi Yopie,

It seems a great activity and you have shown it very well. Wonderful action is seems to be happening the time you caught this capture. The focus is bit soft on the subject but it works well overall.
Very well seen!

best greetings,
Paras

PS: Pardon me, as I am out of my points for today :(

Really good work with the downwards pan here Yopie, not an easy shot to get right but you've done a terrific job. A good capture of the intensity and effort on your subject's face.

  • Great

Ciao Yopie



Interesting capture!
Another day in a documentary on local TV
I could see some moments of this culture and event!
I'm sure it is not easy to climb in the trunk, this way!
And the man's expression says it all!
Very well composition and presentation.

Have a nice weekend,

Sergio
