Captured today at an Italian Festival in Five Dock, Sydney...




50mm 1.4 lens, 1/8000 @ 2.8

John

I like this - great colours. Tiny picky point - a little bit of halation at the edges of the arms, but this may be compression (but I can see it in the larger version)

Quite right... Peter... I was probably a little overenthusiastic with the sharpening... I would redo it, but probably spent half an hour cloning out the background of that one and stupidly did not save the PSD file...

Excellent subject matter
beautiful colour contrast

For a moment there i thought you went to the Venice Carnivale

Glad to hear I'm not the only one that forgets to save the PSD and I'm impressed with your work removing the background. I just figured it was against a blue sky.

It was against a blue sky Peter... There was just a bit of distracting background in the blue rectangle under the arm on the left of the photo... there was also a lamppost on the top right... BTW... The reason for the strange angle is that she / he was walking on stilts...
