Tai Chi

Posted by DTW (Orlando, United States) on 14 April 2007 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Decided to stop with the Shanghai stuff for now. Went out shooting Friday night in Shenzhen and found some people doing Tai Chi in the park.

@Zing: Thanks. I didn't have a tripod with me so I actually found some steps to set the camera on. While I was there I noticed the trees and included them in the shot.

@Dawn Sutherland: Thanks. If you're ever in China you can do with them. One of my co-workers joined in once and no one seemed to mind.

Very nice...I like the exposure and the motion blur! Great capture!

@Jen: Thanks. I was just playing around and thought the blur from the slow motion of Tai Chi might be pretty cool.

Laurie from New Jersey, United States

I like the blurred motion. This must be quite a sight to witness in person.

@Laurie: Thanks. It's pretty cool to see, they do this every Friday night and there are 2 large groups there at the park. Anyone can walk up and join in.

Stunner from Kingston, Jamaica

Cool shot. That must be interesting to watch!

@Stunner: Thanks. It is kind of interesting to watch the motions but more than that to look at the age of the people doing it. There are a lot of older people out there at different times and they do this very well.
