hi Bill, excellent shot and moment, really nice contrast with the bg and you took it at the right moment as she stops the movement but the rice is still on the air ans shows the nice motion blur effect

Hi Bill,

Rabani recently told us...."shoot something ethnic!, and this image just reminds me of what he said.

the dynamism is well seen here...the rice falling back to the bamboo tray.

refrigerator and biscuit can aside, the rest of the subjects here are ethnic. i like it.

Hi Bill,

I especially like your work in documenting the lives of people. You capture it as you see it without dilution or additives. My favourite part of the photo is the streaks of the rice grain being tossed by the lady. A great shot with natural light.

TFS.

Alvin

Hello Bill. The term we use here for this kind of winnowing is menampi. I don't think the younger generation here have the skill to do it anymore. Nice capture with good lighting and pleasant background. I wonder if the stuff behind her are for sale. Those are fine handcrafted items. Thanks for sharing and best regards. Jusni
