**** that's scary! Are you in the military, not sure I'd want to be in that relation to what I guess must be a loaded gun. Nice idea to leave just his trigger finger in focus, could be a bit more prominant, though not sure I'd want to hang around framing that one for too long.

Bonjour,
Quel beau cadrage et quel beau traitement du flou pour cette image face à laquelle on n'est pas insensible. Bonne année.

Wow, Fantastic shot, especially with only a 200m lens. You have a lot of guts to get this kind of picture, thanks for sharing!

Buuffff scaring!!!

Salam Waseem -

Great moment to capture, although it is a man with a machine gun, but still the truth :D I like it so much, but what I would suggest is this, either you focus on soldier’s right eye or at the mouth of the gun (which I can’t recall its name in English) :p TFS

Also a possible title: "Get out of here!". Anyway, the focus on the gun for is interesting for me because it helps to understand what it is, and it surprises (who wants a gun in is face). If the face of the soldier have been focused it may have look like as if the soldier was posing, but like that not much, and it makes it even better.

Hi Waseem,
Hopefully it's just an exercise. Anyway, I wouldn't like to be in front of him.
A very interesting shot - I mean, photo!
