Two more from my Philippine trip.

Hi Travis,

While #1 is a fair environmental portrait, in comparison #2 looks to be a very 'forced' and unnatural pose for (your?) young lady.

The red garment over her arm does you/her no favours either and focus has missed her eyes.

Perhaps many of the issues are because she moved just as you took the shot, I mention them only to be helpful as things to avoid next time.

Your exposure and White Balance looks good.

Hope all that's helpful, Dave

'wonder why they freeze rice?

Nice set, I was wondering about the second image and the pose which Dave mentioned; wondered if it was posed or just a candid?

The image of the Sari Sari Store is pure Filipino. Makes me feel like I am back in the P.I. (BTW: the term P.I., or Philippine Islands, is still used to describe the Philippines - at least in Central Luzon).

Sari Sari Stores and Jeepneys are so typically Filipino that they should be recognized as national treasures...
