Wonderful candid capture, Daniel, and I agree that the motion surrounding him serves to isolate him quite well.

Superb shot, Daniel! Wonderful how the motion helps to isolate.

Thank you Doug :-).
Penny my lady donīt give up: go to the shopping mall, buy a nice Christmas gift for yourself, and do your own try. I want to see it!. Daniel.

Darn this was my idea.... but I doubt I could do it justice as you have. And I'm just too old and slow (now maybe there's an idea for the topic...)
This IS really wonderful.

Another great shot Daniel. I am interested & encouraged by JP's & Martin's comments on this pic.

In photography there's pure luck & making your own luck a. If while walking you tripped over something & the camera accidentally fired you couldn't really claim much credit for the resulting picy but here you have made your own luck shooting at an impossible 2 secs by using burst mode. Even if you didn't use burst mode you have tried something that came off so making your own luck. This shot works great mate & all the credit goes to your seeing & trying & above all, you.

Daniel, love this shot and have to echo fully both of JP's observations... don't obsess over technicalities, that's got nothing to do with making great photos, just makes for great arguments among gearheads and measurebators ;)

You are right...always a bit of luck is needed. Thanks again.

Thanks JP, appreciated. In fact all these motion, grain, and contrast helped to hide a poor quality shot. I think I failed here when setting the camera. I put the focus in the man on the right, set ISO to minimum (80), burst mode, and trusted my hands and 2 sec timer to avoid camera shake. But it wasnīt enough, I got better result when set ISO to 200. Unluckily the ISO 200 shot didnīt match the topic very well. Both shots in DP.
