So you got to Melakka, Mark? Awesome place eh? Mu fav city in Malaysia. Loved that old town area. And the red color that so symbolizes it is on full display here while the girl stands out so strikingly against it in her white clothes.

Good shot here Mark, the light was not easy to deal: the white on the women mixed with the dark side behind, versus the high light in the foreground...you managed all very well for a beautiful portrait of this blace. Well done.

Mark,
Its been a while im taking my time to go through images i have missed for each of my faves so ill get to them all in time.
I love the intese red agsint the white traditional dress of the lady and all those multicolours on the tuk tuk. Nice long shadow too. I find the stair a little distracting though being only half in the frame.
Cheers
Peter
