Hui Chun (Lucky Message) Writing

Chinese New Year

Traditionally, Hui Chun is a handwritten lucky message on a piece of red paper for the Chinese New Year. The Chinese calligraphy in Semi-cursive Script is commonly used in Hui Chun Writing. However, more and more pre-printed or even 3-D Hui Chuns are available nowadays.

Thanks Seth. I used the in-camera "Image Stabilizer". It products very sharp image even at 1/2 Sec shutter speed. CM

do you have some sort of image stabilisation? or did you go ahead and use a tripod? the contrast between sharp and blurred is excellent, produces a real focus around the main subject, leading right into that blurred painting hand. Good work!
