[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken today at klong song (2nd canal)in rangsit north of Bnagkok.
The picture shows one of the very common thai tractors and the owner prepairing the rice field for the next crop.

This is the first time i use the raw option on my camera, and i must admit that it is pretty clever, this is something im going to use more.

sorry for the frame. I would have used a standard border like i usely do, but i couldn´t find out how to do it in photoshop (on my own computer i use paintshop pro)

Hi Harry - interesting documentation, the people are well distributed, since you already apologised for the frame, I won't critisize it.

Bonjour Harry,
Photo très bien composée (cadrage, machine, personnages, etc.). Tout est en place pour présenter avec intérêt cette culture du riz avec des outils mécanisés.
J'aime beaucoup l'ambiance qui se dégage de cette réalisation.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hi Harry.

Good daily life shot. I know, is not a perfect shot, but I think that if you weren't "abulafia" and you were some of the most known members this photo would have more critiques... why? because this one deserves a better luck.

Regards.

This is a common but nice photograph. Ideally you would be in the field with these folks getting a bit closer to the action. The ones in the background seem to be an interesting group.

Perhaps then also you could have had the sun more behind you here rather than coming into the frame from slightly left of the upper right corner. Waiting for the sun to get a bit lower with those folks in the background would also allow you to get underneath the bills of those hats.....but you may have all these shots as well.....I don't know.

Great Job.
Aloha, JB

PS:The shadows are a bit dark perhaps....you might want to do a slight levels adjustment.
