The souvenir Photo

Photographer’s Note

Shot taken whilst I was on my way to visit the Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas outside Cartagena city.
These miniatures of chivas, the traditional buses, are a popular souvenir.
The body of the chivas are made of timber and painted with colourful patterns. Chivas are still widely used in the countryside.

Hello Maria-Blanca,

A nice mix of colours you got here!! Nice depth of focus as well. Would have loved to see more picture and less frame though. But nicely colourful!

Greetings, Dennis

The colors are definitely what caught my eye on this one. But I also agree with Dennis and think you have a bit too much framing here. Well focused, but a deeper depth of field may have been nice as well.

Great color. I'm not sure about the framing but still a good photo. Nice and focused on the subject with nothing to distract.

Hola Maria
Los colores son hermosos y la utilizacion del bokeh tambien, en este caso creo que los munecos son un poco distractivos, una foto solamente con los buses daria una sensacion de grafismo muy buena, aunque la foto en general es muy buena
Un saludo
Daniel
