And There Were Three Lovely Lassies From ...

[Tom]

Possibly a little dark but further adjustments were beginning to blow the white skirts.
These ladies were scattered in the local park in Lijiang for the tourists delight ... I think.
Critique helpful.

Hi Tom,
I like the composition (I always think odd numbers look best). I also like the contrast of their crisply laundered, bright costumes against the dusty park environment. (What were you doing in Lijiang? Looks to be pretty remote place when I Googled it!)

What splendid costumes. I think this is just fine like it is. The colour and composition of the ladies dominate the photograph so that the background is not intruding at all. Having said that I love the rich colour of the soil between the ladies and the shadows over on the right. They may be posing especially for tourist but it's still a wonderful shot.
The lady on the left could do with cheering up a bit though, my doesn't she look grumpy

Thanks Jojo and Pops and I'm sorry it's taken me so long to come back.I'm delighted you both enjoyed this shot.
Jojo I was backing in that neck of the woods in October last.
Pops she is indeed a grumpy old hen and that's perhaps the reason for her isolation from the other two.
Thanks again.
Tom
