Hello Takero,
You were not the only one to find this girl very pretty and worth a photo. You took the picture at a fine moment and made a very good composition. I like the narrow DOF which left everything but the young woman blurred.
Kind regards,
Gert

Dear Takero,
I find the strongest of your shots are the portraits, you find great expressive subjects, pretty women etc and you present them with great focus and depth of field, these are trademarks I like in your shots, this is another charming example.
Regards
Justin

Nice moment captured also you could try the diffrent POV..

but this one is sharp, and due to super OOF area, the character came out.

good job done !

Hi Takero,

The shot at the backyard are the most lovely, as the scenes can be nice and amusing. Nice stolen portrait of the girl in triangular hat. Lovely shot.

Warm regards

hello takero
like many of your children portraits, the "behind the scenes" you shoot at the matsuri are always a pleasure to watch. there is a respect in the way you approach people, your presence is always "light-footed" and never intrusive. I like this way of taking photos, it reminds me of the best daily life photographers which I like so much.
greetings from windy Amsterdam,

my dear takero
a very simply picture with great portrait work as usual in your photos. The distance between 2 people makes a 3d effect also. Bravo yoi shumatsu ihsan

Hi takero
A beautiful smiling face posing for the click, which reflects the naturality. The well realized shot to capture the beautiful moment of a girl's natural smile. The light added significant beautiful color to the photo. Well taken.
have a nice holiday,
ashish

Hello dear Takero-san
She has a beautiful smile! Love the light on her hair! Well done!
I am in two minds regarding the OOF back of the head in the FG...that's neceessary for balancing the picture, while on the other hand it appears a bit of a distraction.
Best Regards
Angshu

Hi Takero!
I loved the idea for this picture!
She's cute and deserved having her photographed taken by two people simultaneously!
Excellent photo quality!
TFS - congrats,
Cheers,
Neyvan
