F1 fans fanning the heat away

It was indeed a hot day.... Just cropped this pic a bit at both ends as i felt it looked better as a panaroma. ;-)

@Craiger: Thanks Craig, really appreciate your comments. :)
Anne from White Rock, Canada
Really interesting candid photo of people and their reaction to the heat of the day! It does look good cropped this way - probably gets rid of a lot of superfluous stuff in the original. Don't care for the blue border though - kind of thing they put around photos in the scandal tabloid newspapers. Nice shot and well taken! :-)

@Sarah [cupcake]: Thanks Sarah, i am falling in love with candid shots too, where people dont pose and you catch them naturally. :)

Dave from United Kingdom
A nice candid moment, you did well with all three people looking in different directions. Definitely the right crop for this image but I agree with Anne about the border, easily changed though.

@Dave: Thanks Dave, it was better off borderless, then i though of having this controversial striking blue around it hehehe....
JackGirl from dreamland, Brazil
Looks a hot day indeed....just like here
people use to be not at a good mood in hot days... I can see in their serious faces

Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
Great expressions captured, you can sense the hot & humid conditions, and the crop really adds something more.

@Richard_Irwin: Thanks Richard. :)
Lydia from Ottawa, Canada
The cropping job definitely makes this image stronger. The people in the picture sure do look hot!

@Lydia: Thanks Lydia, without cropping and with hoardings in the frame, it didnt look so impressive, so i got rid of it. ;-)
