Less DOF in this photograph, If the part (front and back ) more blur. This photo very interest.

@Irwansyah Sk3tchw!nd: Thank you for the comment. My original intention was to just make this a general view through the paintings, highlighting more the man in the hat in the midground, but you have a point here, as on seeing the photo on screen, I did think that the people in the background could have been less prominent. I'm not sure, though, if f6.3 - which is this zoom's maximum aperture at the long end - would have made very much difference, compared with f8 that I used. (f8 does seem to give better sharpness and contrast than wide open.)

A lovely candid, again you have captured the moment perfectly. The angle through the paintings is brilliant

I bet it must be a very interesting location. The little you let us see here is tantalizing!
Thank you, Andrew, for all visits and comments! I conveyed to my husband, Yoshiyuki, your admiration for his shots!
Friendly regards,

Me gusta el encuadre, el pintor queda perfectamente enmarcado entre las diagonales que crean los lienzos, centra todo el punto de atención en él. Saludos.
