Hi Paul,

this is a very nice portrait with well managed depth of field, however the only thing I would change here is the composition - I think it would look better if the person wasn´t centered, but moved either to the left or to the right...

Take care, Ivana

Very nice work, Paul.
I especially like the multicolored confetti falling down, without disturbing the man's face.
A nice soft background strengthen the feeling of depth.

Regards,

Eddie

Bonsoir,
Photo colorée et joyeuse, avec cette pluie de confettis et le sourire ravi du monsieur. La profondeur de champ permet de se concentrer sur l'essentiel. J'aime beaucoup.
Iva

Bonjour Paul,
Une belle réussite cette prise. Le personnage bien net et les confettis un peu flous ce qui traduit le mouvement de l'instant. Bien réalisée.
