Blurring the background - Bus and boy

Description

Blurred background study - I followed this obviously troubled boy through silom. He was dancing in the street I dont know how he wasnt hit by traffic. This was the last shot I took of him before he disappeared over a road. Bangkok buses are very colourful and I like how the blurred background contradicts his pose. 1/15s(camera shake!!) f/3.6 at 200mm iso200 I've also cropped it and cloned out a bush from the bottom left.

Exif: FNumber: 3.6, ExposureBiasValue: 133/100, ExposureTime: 6.66666666666667E-02, Flash: flash did not fire, ISO: 200, WhiteBalance: auto white balance
