Photographer's Note
**I upload this photo last night but accidently delted it, so I upload it again **
This is the dragon boat series Them I shot recently in China. For story/history of Dragon Boat, please see the other photografer note here
Apart for the cernemony and burning firecrackers, , they also come into racing.
Each boat has around 50 peoeple. The paddles, the drum are their tools. Winners got nothing but laughing and cheers. The most important is not the result but the process that they enjoy.
This is the theme of the series.
-----------
Note on PS: boost satuation, change curve, crop, add frame.

Hi Kinson, another excellent shot of this series. Very strong impact of the tight framing of all these men paddling together. The colors are very attractive and give an very attractive 'ageless' tone to your documentary. Cheers, --amz

Hi Kinson,
It's a pity that you've deleted it by accident! I think it's a superb documentary picture of the dragon boat festival. Great colours and powerful atmosphere captured, and great feeling as well. Once again, TFS.
