Hi Tom,

I envy your shot a lot, because already missed this new "Rat Year" of celebration, Chinese New Year (they came to Suriname South America 150 years ago !). Your shot is include a great DOF while adding great mimic of actress.

Friendly Regards,

Ertugrul

Hi Tom,
A great sharp one with good detail on his face, I especially like that we can see the texture on his skin. Well composed and good use of depth of field.
Regards
Wanda

Bonjour,
Un double portrait haut en détails, et dont la composition me plaît beaucoup. J'ai eu une première réaction étonnée en voyant que la photo a été prise à Paris, mais quand on sait l'importance des Chinatown dans la plupart des grandes villes, mon étonnement devient ridicule...
