LLUIS MON AMI!  :-)
BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! :-) :-) :-)
Absolutely right on the mark so visually and photographically timing perfect 
it couldn't be better.
I believe as a "STREET LIFE MOMENT" with the slight lightening and cropping, 
it now is a "WINNNING PHOTO!" for your exhibition! And possibly as an entry 
in a photo competition!
Your "CLICK TIMING" capturing the person right at the peak of light and 
shadow couldn't be better.
Even a person using a motor driven camera and relying on that to capture the 
moment would most likely miss the perfect "CLICK" MOMENT AS WE SEE HERE! 
This is a "Human being re-action moment" caught strictly by the reflexes of 
the human being.
And Lluis, they don't come any better than a "natural well tuned re-action 
than yours!" Incredible!
cheers,
Dr. ted    C.M.O.C

Hi Ted, Jim

Thank you very much for your last comments, I agree with you Ted, now is 
fixed, also I?ve lightened a bit the subject and burned the background, I 
think this one is the last and best version

BTW, I don?t know what is correct in English ?In the point?, ?On the point?, 
?At the point??..? Thank you!

Thanks for looking, your c&c are welcome!

Saludos cordiales
Lluis
