Photographer’s Note

2.20 p.m. - The first stop along our cruise down the Yangtze River from Chongqing is Fengdu which is also known as the Ghost City and upon alighting from the ship you will be greeted by the locals selling maps and books on popular tourist sites; food like noodles and dumplings; batteries and memory cards; souvenirs and fruits. While others have constructed permanent stalls to sell their wares, this one uses a pull cart. I guess it is the mobility that he is looking for.

Hallo Aloysius!
You show us a colourful and interesting picture here. These men give a relaxed impression and I like their mouthwatering offers very much. What a contrast to the fruit shop in a department store ... but this kind of supply works too...
Greetings from summerly Germany!

Hello Aloysius,

I can see the advantages by using a mobile shop like this!
I also notice the delicate display of the fruit, not the quality but the quality is appealing...
A good documentary of this streetside scene, well composed with good details!

Greetings,

hi Ho

I find your daily life shot very interesting to show the novelty of this pull cart and selling fruits. It is fun to see such kind of diversity in lifestyle from China. A very good post for TE.

Hello Aloysius,

Very nice daily life picture with the fruit as subject.
Real colours and the both people see very quiet and wait on new clients.
Composition and presentation are very well, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hello Aloysius
Good to see you back! A good street scene. The cart (similar what we see in my country as well) is selling juicy fruits with excellent colours. Well composed in a slight diagonal. Good work!
Best Regards

Nice daily life shot, Aloysius, but I wish the man on the left had not been looking away from you. The different colured fruits (which look to be very good quality) form a nice diagonal across the middle of the image. Cheers . . . David
