nice! more space at the left sana. nice facial expression on the right woman which, imo, made this photo above average.

great use of depth of field.

It would have been nice if you got all 3 women in focus. Depth of field was a bit shallow. Great facial expression.

Where did you shoot this?

@Antonio- thanks...i like it that way because i want to give an emphasis on the two elders behind her.

@waffy - that's in the hinterlands of Lake Sebu, South Cotabato. 3 hours pa from the nearest town.

thanks!

are they always dressed that way there or is there a festival? i've heard Lake Sebu has so many photo opportunities. Is it true?

:)

it's very far from the lake sebu town proper . they dress like that normally in that barangay. very natural. even on ordinary community gatherings, they dress like that and perform cultural presentations.

in some cases, those you've seen in festivals, are misrepresentations.

and yes, there are a lot of photo ops in Lake Sebu. on the end of Oct, they will have a culmination of the IP month. maraming photo ops.

Very interesting. I'd like to shoot there sometime. Thanks for sharing! =)
