Here's another from my trip to China. They're playing a form of Chess which seemed to be very popular.
_SGK1637-Edit-2

Exposure: 0.004 sec (1/250)
Aperture: f/8
Focal Length: 65 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: -1 EV

I think this is my favorite edit.

HERE it is with a more traditional aspect ratio

Here it is unedited

Here it is with an even tighter crop to focus attention on the "concentration". I think it looses it's "context" with this version.

So what do you think? Which version is best? What could I have done better?

Nice shot.

I'm working in China for a few months - that game (Chinese Chess) is very popular.
