Good use of DOF here, Tai, keeping the old woman's face sharply in focus, just softening a little on the woman behind, and then blurring the background. Nice vibrant colours and sharpness too. However, I would have composed this with the subjects a little more in the right of the frame so we didn't see so much of the baskets, but instead saw a little more of the hut in the background. Cheers . . . David

Hi Tai

Good to see a new post from you. I like the superb red color in this attractive daily life shot froom Sapa. Could be a little bit sharper though. Good work overall!
