You say "Every moment is unique and it may happens only once and can never be repeated." and this is what I love about this picture. Not only that it's technically excellent, but it keeps my view locked. There's so much to be found here and to be thought of.

In a nutshell: simply great! :)

WK Chew Thanks Chris for your kind words.

wish that you were coveing your face with masker during this session.. nice one Chew

WK Chew I took the photo and ran away as the room is really dusty. I am actually very concern with the workers there. They don't seem to care about their own health at least wearing some kind of mask.

Very nice,
But I the way BG seems to have been blurred at PP is not very natural. Why did you do that ?

WK Chew Greetings Jacques, yes, I did some blurred at Photoshop. If a photo is not shot at f/2.8 or not blurred enough at the bg; I will always receive comments from members that 'distracting BG'. If you look at almost all my published photos had some kind of photoshop blurred. This is a fact that I have to admit and comply to if I want a photo to be published here.

jacques philippe Thanks for the insight... I suspected it was that and wanted to make sure. If you want to know what I think about that it is totally bulls***t... Eliminate/blur background and all around main subject-matter is the negation of street/documentary/everyday/environmental portrait genres... But you are a very good photographer so I am not that bothered here, I know you know what you were doing ... ;)
Very nice capture and composition.

WK Chew Greetings jacques, I strongly agreed with you as I love to shoot environmental portraits. I always use f/5.6 or f/8 to capture more of what is going on around the subject.
