After rough negotiations around the fishermen and their fish, then the sale comes from those...
Negotiations

I thus introduce to you a salesman of Lipah with his 2 baskets filled with fish, finally that depend on the days:)

Salut Philippe

A good daily life shot, with well managed dof, & good color & sharpness. Perhaps the boat is a little oe? Overall, c'est tres bon!

Salut Philippe
Ce vieil hoomme semble très satisfait de sa prise. C'est une image vivante (contrairement aux poissons qui ont l'air vraiment raides)
Belle prise.
Amicalement
Bertrand

Salut Philippe,

Amicalement, Brigitte

salut philippe,
nice portrait of this fisherman, seems he really satisfied with the result of negotiation (or he was happy that you took picture of him :D)
the light a little bit harsh, but still very nice picture

I sold fish for some time but nothing like this. The textures in this really stand out very well. From the rocks to the basket and to the shirt and man all the textures are clear. The colors are nice, too, and the exposure, except for the overexposed fish. The contrast looks high and perhaps was a cause for that. But then I like the contrast like this so I probably would not change it. It adds a harshness to the image that the rocks help convey. Sort of rough work in the sun and heat and fish. Nicely done.

Hi Philippe
Very nice composition with this nice man ;)
Tanks for sharing

Belle scene typique de la vie Balinaise, ce pecheur a l'air heureux et semble apprecier son travail.J'aime beaucoup la pose qu'il prend et le cadrage vertical qui rend la photo tres esthetique. Bravo !
Michael.
