I do have to ask why you chose your rather extreme settings?

Beautiful shot, John -- beautiful lady too. A bit soft in the face? I like her pose.

Hi Phil,

This was taken at an outdoor skating rink, subject was backlit, and moving at a reasonable speed. Thanks for commenting.

There is a consistency about your street photography John. Your subjects always tend to be female.....ummm. Nice shot.

Hi John,

It never dawned on me. Thanks for commenting.

John,
Nice candid beautifully lit, and well done except for the slight softness in the face.
Also there is an horizontal line above her head. Did you add more canvas and background to the original?
You could easily crop to that line and lose nothing.

Really like this, John.

Very well done considering she was moving at the time.

Hi Robert,

I did add more canvas, the original capture was a bit tight at top. Thanks for comments and suggestion.
