Juggling act...

Posted by Nicholas (Shah Alam, Malaysia) on 28 April 2009 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Its a common sight to see women balancing things on their head. Quite a view. Stopped my bicycle to quickly grab a shot of this and got rewarded by a smile. Taken with Nikon D90 and 35mm.

Something quite timeless about this image that goes much further than the smooth toning. For a grabbed shot, the framing and composition is very effective, too.
