    Default Cambodia

    These shots were taken in Cambodia, while being in motion, through the window of a bus.

    The 1st shot is of a child working in the fields, fishing. This is a very normal thing to see along the countryside.

    The 2nd one I liked because of the color match with the building and the bike.

    The 3rd was supposed to be just of the boy fishing in the background, but the woman on the motorbike passed just as I pushed the shutter button! Both the bike and the bus were crossing at about a speed of 60 Kms/hr. I know it breaks the foreground in focus rule, but I just like how it represents Cambodia and thought it was kind of fun.

    All three of these shots are way too blurry...which make them good souveniers but not very good photographs.

    I agree that the potential WAS there, especially in the first and 3rd shots, but both your focus and your shutter speed was quite 'off'

    Sorry to be so harsh.
