Outstanding details in this photo. She barely looks real. This photo makes me wish I knew more about her culture and her. The color is superb. I really appreciate the fact you've noted the odd grayness on the left. Lots of people post and then don't mention their obvious editing. Thanks for telling us what you did.

Salut Marilyn,

Quelle opportunité! En effet, d'arriver ainsi à l'improviste et de tomber sur un événement culturel relève de la pure chance! Tu as su en profiter en saisissant cette petite poupée rêveuse. Ces costumes soyeux sont toujours un régal pour le photographe en quête de couleurs. Belle lumière et netteté irréprochable.

Ciao!

André

P.S.: J'ai rencontré Doc Devimeux qui m'a dit beaucoup de bien de ton copain... :-P)

Hi Marilyn,

Endearing and colourful image of this girl. Because of the heavy makeup I first thought the she could be a doll.

Hi Marilyn,
outstanding colour impression and an innocent face of a child (looks also a bit annoyed). Pleasant usage of reduced DOF and the light is also well used for a good clarity and details. Even crowded you found a good POV to put her in the right frame.

Hi Marilyn,
the portrait of this pretty little girl is very well captured and you did a good work with the crop. The light is perfectly managed and the boy in the bg. doesn't disturb 'cause his face is in the shadow and does not distract. Well done!
Tfs and best wishes.

Hola Marilyn.
I like the details and colors on her clothing and of course her expression is lovely. Beautiful little girl, her make up looks fantastic. The presence of the face of the boy in your DOF maybe is a little bit distracting but your shot is so good that it doesn't matter.
Well done. TFS.
Cheers.
