Hi Lybil.

Very nice shot. The subjects are very colorful and I like how you captured their movement. The background matches well also. I know you intended to put the focus on the woman, but I think it may have look nice with the man in focus as well.

They look like they are rock & rolling from the fifties!! I think the motion blur on the man is just a little too extreme to get away with, unfortunately. I would have suggested using your maximum aperture here, and cranking up the ISO even higher, in order to get a faster shutter speed. 1/50 of a second was never going to be fast enough.

From their costums they look like they are from the small portuguese/malay mix that live in Malacca. Let me know if you know from what area they came from.

The colors are great, the subjects are worth photographing, but the bluring of the man from head to toe distorts the picture. It would have been awesome if you could have captured him in focus as well.

Hi Lybil.
Bella composizione. Foto molto realistica e colori vivaci.
Complimenti Renzo
