to most people carrying your beloved camera around the bars and clubs of a busy city centre on a weekend night is a no-no.... but I have done now for 4 three years without any problems in fact some of my best shots have emanated from pub and club nights.....In this shot these random girlies just loved playing to the camera... so I give you Random Smiles

Hello Ron,

If I didn't know better, I'd think you had your own hareem!

A nicely composed shot with good light considering what pub environments are usually like!
The dof keeps your main person nicely focussed, blurring gradually into the b/g.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

HAHA! Wonderful shot Ron!! Excellent exposure and you caught everyone having a great time! Nice sharpness, the flash doesn't bother me at all here, did you mute it? Perfect for the theme!

Hi Ron,

Great "Smile" theme shot. The girl in the FG is in very sharp focus, with subdued bar lighting, in spite of the flash. Her provocative smile is quite striking. Her friends in the BG are very nicely out of focus, while contributing a great deal to the mood and the theme. I can just hear their laughter and comments. Very well done! TFS.

Hello Ron

I think this shot is really superb. The lighting is nice and warm, DOF is absoltuely perfect as the lady in the FG is razor sharp but you also held the details in the BG. Lovely post my friend.

TFS and for joining in the theme

kind regards Helen

Hello Ron !

I like a lot this unusual composition here . The smiles are indeed well captured. She does have a sweet and malicious smile. Th eother ladies are completing very well the scene for the theme. A good choice proposed.
Natural expressions and a charming , and funny moment well captured.
Cheers!
Robert

I might add her left eye blocked by her hair is adding charm to her expression. I love the DOF and light merering here. Bravo!
