Photographer’s Note
On a Saturday when the weather is fine (26 degrees C) the park is a busy place. All sorts of groups gather together and perform their special hobbies. This group seemed very happy to watch an expert Kung Fu guy dressed in silk suit made for this exercise. There was delight in the eyes of the group seeing how this group of exercises should be done. When he completed his display the group all clapped him and called for more lessons.

Fine capture, Murray. Goes to show it pays to carry the camera at all times, something I never do. The blue stands out nicely amid the crowd, and I like the candid expressions on faces. Regards,

But surely, it's interesting photo of quite unusual moment (unusual for my eyes, though). Everyone looks quite good-humoured about whole thing. Good photo and interesting moment captured.

Hi Murray. Nice to see the audience participation ;-). The main subject stands out well in his silk outfit. Well composed and thanks for sharing.

Hello Murray,
This is a genuinely compelling shot. The man in the marshall arts position and appropriately dressed in the most dramatic cobalt blue silks, becomes an instant focal point, even without his status as the focal point for the crowd itself. This is a very fine capture. I hope it was a good Sunday for you (here it is just 8:46 am). Judging by the date of the shot and the date of the posting, you are back in China. I wonder whose bust adorns the site?
Warm regards and have a good Sunday,
Bulent

Hi Murray,
You caught a great feeling in this crowd, and the man in blue popos out of the screen.
Excellent framing, colors and sharpness are fine.
Well captured
Laurent
