Yes Saad, the google is a fun way to try and translate. I am sure that it was not exactly what I was trying to say but I am glad it was something to bring a smile to you my brother. My Arabic translation from Google was meant for the fun. I knew you would have fun reading it. Be well my friend,, Stan

thank you so much for the fast reply, I thought she was from the native Americans ,one strange word in the about or the place suggest that to me,but her features are Caucasian,(medical term to describe us) friendly advice,do not try to learn Arabic,it is so difficult,and can not be learn unless you mix with peoples speaking Arabic, my regards, Saad.

No Saad, glad you found our conversation fun. I would be willing to try with a good teacher and learning to go a new direction so to speak. I have translated conversation in the comments to understand many of the languages here. Google translate leaves some of it to the imagination. It is very fun to try and see the what the equivalent words are in so many different languages. At my age I doubt if I will become fluent in any, but that is where the fun starts.
As far as the word local people I mean that these are the people from the surrounding area. Like villages coming together a common event. In my area people come from 100km to do things together. We have a vast area geographically and a small population. Hope this helps. I think you and Riny are excellent with your English and your kind words as well. Be well my friend, Stan

One very important factor to study in order to improve your photography and end with great photos is the relationship between the shutter travelling speed and the F Stop.
In between that figure, you can always have more access to control the exposure value by the bracketing method, always allow more exposing value to your image by a number of stops up and down, this way you would end with one almost at a perfect value.
I usually shoot the same subject more than 12 times at different exposure value either sides, having said so, this was done by me at a time where working on slide me trials film and doing all of the processing at home along with my father who was a great photographer, it was very costly at the time as I kill one full 36 frames film possibly on one subject but at the end one of those photos is what I am looking for.
Today with digital films going up to 16GB or more, it is not costly at all. I also try where it is possible to use some sort of sport for my camera, especially when working in dim lights or at very low shutter speed, a tripod or even a mono pod comes essential. I started taken photos at 7 years old with the most expensive cameras at the time but remained till date learning and experimenting, through my study at Nagoya UV. I went through taught time doing different projects, mostly with photographing people on the streets, at some stage I felt all I knew been too little and still a lot more to learn.
You are doing a great job my friend, just keep shooting and keep reading and experimenting more and more.
I wish all of the success and will always have the pleasure to view your images.

Yes Riny, I chase the light and find early and late light the most dramatic. I am also trying to learn to control my exposures in the harder part of the day as well. I appreciate the encouragement on my efforts and what I have tried to do with my Photo Work. It is people like you who have helped me learn by looking and by your great comments as well. Be well, Stan

Hi Riny, your English is much better than my Dutch. I just resort to google translate to try and understand the comments in other languages. The spirit of the people here are the most important. Sometimes words get in the way. I always appreciate your comments and encouragement. Be well, Stan

Amazing stage capture of very well balanced exposure, composition and details, I like the emotional effect on the face, shows how series the lady is with what she is doing.
