Ciao Steve,
Incredibile e molto curiosa la donna in quella posizione! Mi piace la materia che c'è intorno al soggetto, i fiori, la cassa di legno, la colonna il marmo e l'incisione a destra. Ottimo scatto!
Saluti, Nino.

Hi Steve

The usual Indian flower garlands are the highlight of picture. I guess that the vendor is half blind, looking at her face. It's a typical picture from the narrow alleys of Varansi, I have seen countless times. It's a nice composition, good light management and fine sharpness. Well done.

Best regards
Urs

Bonsoir Steve,

C'est une belle scène de vie quotidienne.
J'aime ce regard un peu étrange de la femme : que veut-il dire, que pense t-elle ?
Bonne soirée
Marc

not surprised that this is shot in the varanasi Chowk !
She sure looks unfortunately as a eye-eyed woman
She is so curled up in her tiny corner, against the BG wall
A nice one Steve!
Best

You pressed the shutter a just the correct second to capture the mood in the face of this market seller. Excellent balance throughout the shot.
Cheers!
