Photographer’s Note
Second and last of this series and experiment. Here once again i had the camera hand held with no flash. I wanted to focus on the lady in the picture because she was the only one staying almost still when I took this shot.
cropped and heavily saturated.Light and color in this shot is unchanged.

Bonjour Pranab,
It's quite good for a night shot without flash! Light exposure is good, the colors well rendered and the saturation is working well. I like the blurred effect of the people in your compo.
Have a nice day,
Marilyn

Hi Pranab.
Xmas time is here again.... :P
Excellent picture with the blur in many people. The 2 persons who are not blur creates a great effect.

This is very very good, Pranab. You have captured the holiday mood perfectly. Frenetic shopping, carefree attitudes, the festive colours, well done. The blur and the focussed elements meld to create an excellent mood. One of your very best. Very well composed as well.

Hi Pranab Da,
Excellent night shot. How did you manage to focus on the lady through the crowd? Her stillness vis a vis the movement of the others really makes this picture.
With Regards

Nice daily life shot here Pranab. I like the experiment! I'll have to try that one & I think I'll adopt your bold font for what you did with image processing. Nice touch. Simple and clear.

Hi Pranab.
If we forget the grain, we are in front of a good picture where only could dislike me the street lamp overexposed. Even then, very interesting picture.
Regards.

Hi Pranab,
Great lighting effect. The focusing on the single lady and blurring rest of the people in this night shot is definately a pro idea. Your ISO settings of Fuji camera has helped you to get this great result.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Pranab,
I like the impression of everyone in a hurry, excellent image of pre Christmas atmosphere! In spite of still November...
Good colours and nice framing, all together a successful image of the mood!

Merhaba Pranab, my friend...
It's a wonderful point of view and very creative composition... The motion effect is perfect... The red tones and the light are beutiful... The focus on the lady is in the middle of the photograph is perfect too...
TFS...
Stay well..

Hi Pranab
Interesting shot and technique. The movement of the people adds some good dynamism and the woman standing still, is well captured. I like the red colouring on the trees too. The noise is quite strong, though, but you have captured the atmosphere excellently.

Hello Pranab,
I see you are enjoying your new 'toy' and having quite a fun experimenting it!
I like the effect you caught on this one with motion and stilness mixed in one shot, despite the noise that is visible I like this shot. The colours on trees are nice.
Cheers.

Dear Pranab
Good effect of long exposure with the blurry effect of movement. The lady in the centre is still & sharp in focus. Nice colors of the night. Hand held..WOW!

Nice one, Pranab. Some superb colour, and the contrast between the blurred and focused people is really effective. The capture of that young woman as the focal point is so well done. You got a good result with a compact camera here. Well done.
Regards,
Andrew
