I find the sharpness impressive here, Danos. I guess the IS wonder works. Fine composition, I like the diagonally standing riders. Regards,

Hi Danos,
good capture of this spectacle with difficult light conditions but with a good result in the exposure and the colors. I like the diagonal of the riders with his white dresses, on his horses, taking our glance towards the building of BG well illuminated.
A beautiful work, well done.
Best regards,
Josep

Kalimera Danos,
astonishing exposure quality in that light, great sharpness. Also a good view having them in a row. The red and white combination makes it stunning.

Hi Danos,
I can't see what you could do about the only thing not perfect here: the lack of sharpness of the horsemen. Considering the circumstances, you did a remarkable job; we can see them clearly enough and the palace even better. The POV is very wise and the exposure is perfect. A wonderful photo and an effective documentary of a memorable and unique show.
TFS, Regards, José.

Ready for some galloping! Dificult light conditions are well raken care of here...i can see good colors and sharpness, with no overexposure of the whites and clear shade areas. Good detail sharpness too.
An interesting scene.

Hi Danos,
Yes, that looks tricky. The focal length has been pretty long for such low light shot. And naturally that line is not perfectly still, but a bit of motion blur adds life here. That background building is impressive too.

Hi Danos, Great photo, I think even though there where some problems with lighting conditions &, the length of your theme, you coped very well, the horses & riders are composed in the photo superbly & the building behind creates excellent colour, you have also framed it nicely & an interesting note, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Γειά σου Δάνο,
άσε κατά μέρος τις δικαιολογίες για τη δυσκολία αυτής της φωτογραφίας :-)
Την έχεις πετύχει καταπληκτικά! Και φωτισμός σωστός, και εστίαση, και γωνία λήψης.
Εξαιρετική!
Φιλικά,
Μιχάλης

(Ήμουν κι εγώ στο show και το μόνο που κατάφερα από φωτογραφικής άποψης ήταν μια ...σκατούλα, ίσα για να μου θυμίζει ότι ήμουν εκεί).

Hi Danos!
Did you like it?I've been in Chez Ali twice, made for tourists yes. Have you been in the Festival in El Badi Palace? That's nice.
The photo is very nice and I know it's not so easy there. It's sharp, with good light showing the men and the buildings.

Hi Danos,
These must be Arabian horses? Very good result considering the difficult lighting conditions you've mentioned. Hope you had a good time in such a grand place ... must cost you a bit though to get in. Anyway, you've captured and presented the scene well. Good work! tfs

Πολύ καλή η νυκτερινή σου λήψη , Δάνο, παρά τις τόσες δυσκολίες.
Δεν ξέρω εαν χρησιμοποίησες τρίποδο αλλά η ευκρίνεια είναι καταπλήκτική για τις συγκεκριμένες συνθήκες.
Πολύ ενημερωτικό το σημείωμα σου.
Χαιρετώ

Bonjour, mon bon ami Danos,
Encore, une très intéressante prise de vue. Le cadrage est parfait avec cette diagonale qui valorise le sujet principal.
Bravo pour avoir réussi une photo très difficile à réaliser à main levée.
L'on sent bien le piaffement des chevaux avant le départ.
Très bien fait.
Amitiés.

Hello Danos,

Indeed you write self it's a very difficult picture, but you did very well.
The enlightenment of the castle in background give a wonderful composition.
Also the riders come very well in image, maybe with a monopod or tripod and longer exposure should the picture be better, but this is not always possible.
Thanks for sharing.

Have a nice weekend,
John.

Iassou Danos
An interesting event well captured and exposed considering the different difficulties...These horses riders positioned in a diagonal lead nicely the eye to the edifice (I guess it is at the restaurant "chez Ali") which gives a nice touch of color. The date trees on the right side add more exoticism to the scene.
Cheers

Great tension in the moment!
It is really about to begin, and a big, loud fuss will fill the ground. The light conditions were indeed difficult for photography, but you did it very very good. The geometry of perspective, the horses and riders in line, and the red buliding make a lovely compo. Great!
