the fish might be slightly overexposed,
but this is a lovely photograph on the whole. i love the deep rich colours here. the photograph on its own is very natural and i'm glad that the lady is not looking into your camera directly. i think it would have made the photograph less interesting. it's nice that this lady doesn't have inhibitions about your hanging around with a camera and is being her natural most.
great photograph
take care :)

Nice shot of daily life transactions. I like the clutter and chaos of the background and always the colours of India ;-)

Nice daily life scene. I like that no one really seems to care about you and your camera, acting natural. There is a lot going on in the frame but still not being distracting. Good colors too. Good work.

Yes dayly life. Poor sanitation, but the photo tells a lot.
Cheers

Belle capture Patricia, je suis allé à Pondi mais sans appareil numérique et dans ce lieu à l'éclairage si difficile, j'ai eu du mal à m'en sortir. Je place ta photo dans mon thème de groupe.
Les couleurs sont un peu "dures" à mon goût et il faudrait un poil de netteté. Je ne pourrai pas trop d'aider en numérique car je n'en suis pas équipé. As tu d'autres photos de Pondi.
à bientôt et meilleurs voeux

Very unusual picture with exagerated contrast.
Not an example of "how to make a beautifull picture" but just beacuse of this, I find it very, very attractive.
One small comment: the right hand of the person in the middle disturbs as it is not in line with the dramatic aspect of the whole.
Congrats

nice shot here. maybe a bit overexposed and saturated at places, but full marks for the action and composition you have captured in your lens. some bargaining going on in the noisy fish market?
