Photographer’s Note
Shot this outside a popular Chinese Restaurant. Had carried my camera when we went for our dinner. Somehow looking inside this window was fascinating.
I know the image is slightly blurred coz of the people moving, but then I dont know how exactly I can get a perfectly still shot in such darkness. Moreover I think that little blur looks nice, soft and warm here. Can do with suggestions though !!

The image seems a little blurry at first, but I believe that the feeling received by that is just great.
Very nice photo,
Thanks for sharing!

hi sandeep i just came across your critiques
i thought you had stopped participating on te. also saw your post on the general forum yesterday , but my connection was slow and photographs were not opening.
the idea ihere is nice.
the blur here is not suitable . i love blurs, but the blur should have a purpose, even withouth any purpose it should be aesthetically appealing. ok since you already mentioned it, i wont go on and on :)
if your camera is digital , then set the iso higher and then shoot. if you use film, then maybe a faster film. you'll get grains , but don't worry about them they should add to the atmosphere
if you're stuck with an iso 100 film in your camera and then want to take a photograph like this, then you should atleast keep the camera stable. then you'll have the tables, the ceilings etc inside all sharp and the blur will only be in the people. now that i believe will create an atmosphere of movement. you can experiment at sdifferent shutter speeds to increase/reduce the intensity of the blur and then decide what suits your taste.
but have to add, that your camera is really really stable considering that you gave it a 2 second exposure ( i'm assuming it was in your hand)
take care
