Ladies are dancing on the street during one festival in Paramaribo. The activity is currently local but I believe it will become a famous one in future. I have many shoots from festival hope can post some more.

Many cheers you to all,

Hola Ert
Estupenda toma con colores muy bien manejados y también las luces. Sus modelos están muy presentados en su captura. Me gustan los gran contrastes entre los rojos y el cielo azul. Uno excelente portrait. Bien hecho. Consuelo

Hi, Ertugruul,
A very nice shot of the so-called cultural ones as it's showing a festival.
The girl in the FG is very beautiful
A lovely capture.

ps. let me mention a little nagging feeling. that signature on the left. i feel it is a tad too intrusive. i guess, i would try to blend it in more. just my very personal opinion :)

Merhaba my friend Ertugrul,
A scene with a great color for the splendid clothes of these girls, and a lot of sharm in her faces.
It is a composition very different from your habitual works, but very well realized, with a great light and a few beautiful colors, as usual.
Beautiful photo.
Best regards,
Josep

Olá Parbo,
uma imagem que lembra bastante o carnval brasileiro, gostei da qualidade da foto, muito boa.
Parabéns e Abraço!

Hi Ertugrul,
very nice capture of women creating a pattern by their bodies and clothes. Very nice contrast and light.
Well done
Best regards
Romana

Hi Ertugrul,
The tight framing around these charming ladies gives a good visual impact to the scene... Very vivid red color tones and perfect sharpness.
Good scene of this festival

Ertugrul,
Interesting all those girls in red. As the song, or as the brazilan carnval, I hoppe they can reach the international success. The point of view and the colors are great.

Well done.

Hello Ertugruul,

This is a most exciting photograph!
It really captures the spirit of the festival!

Although it is a busy scene, by putting one lady in the forefront, you have focussed our eyes there and allowed us to absorb her first!

Sharp, detailed and well-saturated colours!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
Many thanks for your warm comments on 'Look at Lothersdale'.

Hi Ertugrul,
Splendid festive image with very attractive composition. I like the vivid colours and the beautiful girls. Great! Have a nice Sunday
George

Ciao Ertugrul, splendide ragazze con magnifici costumi, bellissimi i colori e ottima l'inquadratura, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hi Ertugrul
The red outfits certainly grab the eye. The one gal on the right has her face a little hidden but these shots are difficult to do and get everyone perfect. The main person in front is sharp and her costume really shows up against her dark skin.
Phil

Salut Ertugrul!
Toujours merveilleuses ces images de Carnaval mais celle-ci est plus que parfaite sans oublier les jolies filles qui y sont pour quelques chose. La qualité d'image est excellente et les couleurs fantastiques.
Félicitations!... et bon dimanche,

Hi Ertugrul

A beautiful picture of the festival.

The shades of red highlights certainly greatly, especially on the dark skin of the girl's spotlight, with great charm, brightness and glory.

Great sharpness, brightness and contrast. Excellent portrait undoubtedly my friend. Congratulations

Hello Ertugrul -

This is an excellent image with the skin tones right on the money. Photographing dark subjects is very difficult and you managed the light well to have exposure of the skin tones to be right on and the colors of the costumes right on as well. Well done!

Thank you for sharing.

Hi Ertugrul. Wonderful colours and excellent composition. Look forward to seeing more of this festival. Thanks for sharing.

Technically excellent shot, Ertugrul. Combination of
red & white of their dresses is an absolute eye-catcher
as is the impecable composition. You had great light, too. Congrats,

Back to your photo: a good triangular composition, excellent sharpness and the red colour and the ladies' beauty and enthusiasm all contribute to this great shot. Good work!
