[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
this is a photo taken a joint workshop between Malaysian students in my university with University de Bologna, Italy....it is the final day and they were commenting on my presentation boards....

the lady with brown hair is a lecturer from the Italian side and i loved to watch her expressions...she can speak about anything for hours and with everlasting energy.....the lady next to her is the Italian ambassador in Malaysia.

i did not realise how funny this looks until i looked at their expressions....i love the spontaneous looks i captured here.

original photo is posted as a ws...i tried to bring out their expressions with a little touch up in ps. hope you guys like it...please tell me rooms for improvement...have a nice day!

Very nioce shot, that outline the two persons at the center in a well constructer manner.
Our attention is really driven straight to the centter of the picture.
The out of focu background is also good.
I have the feeling that this is a 3-D picture !!

You did well, Eleen! Very nice picture of those two ladies, and had to laugh with the title. Looks like a very joyful affair there !

Sorry ran out of points again (seems to become a habbit)

Hello eleen. Neither one nor the other it is an object not identified. This photograph is very well made, cheer for work jp

haha..i like the title so much.. is a plane? no! its a bird? no!!... its SUPERMAN! ..classic one! eleen, once again you got a great photo with good composition where the expression and critical moment of both women are very well captured. And the photoshop works, simply amazing.. u made them stand out from the background.. and remove the unwanted ppl around.. very very good!

It is really good composition...Expressions are well-captured...Post-process are good at emphasizing the center of the photo. Excellent work...

I think you are right about the PP here Eleen, to empase the expressions and eliminate the disturbing factors here !! Great shot, with excellent timing !!

Leon

Eleen, I don't like the motion blur as it is really unrealistic. On the other hand, especially the man in the right, draws the attention towards your main subject. I think this could be achieved without PP work too, using a different crop. I'll try a WS on your original.
Anyway, 2 points: one for compo, the other for isolation of your main subject which is very well done! TFS

Excellent process from you, well done.
Jean Michel

Very nice journalistic shot Eleen. I like the candidness of it. The zoom blur certainly puts emphasis on the two main subjects. I like it.

Well done Eleen! I like the way you have blured the image to focus on the subjects. Good work!
