Jackfruit sellers Photo

Photographer’s Note

Jackfruit (this is the big, spiky fruit similar to duriam) sellers on a ferry boat in Cambodia

Travelling on ferries in Cambodia is a kind of strong experience - they are made of wood, they seem as they were to fall apart in a minute, and ferry drivers keep smoking cigarettes just near the gas container..

It's like a photo reportage Antoni. Very good daily-life photo.

i love those shots that remind me so much of similar scenes in Africa while crossing some rivers or water paths...the light on the kid's face on the right is fantastic...especially, seee the overexposed sky... good shot antoni!

Very difficult lighting conditions ...
A combination of fill-in flash and polarizing filter could have helped to enhance the light on the sellers faces and give more blue definition to the sky ...

Try to reduce brightness and add contrast ...
Still, good capture of difficult subject in bad light condition ...

P.S. The smell of Durian ... yuck
