Hi Hanif, nice pictuer of daily life in NWFP, though a shot from the side clearly showing his two wheeler cart, would be better i think.

In this picture, not able to see his cart clearly. Anyway,its just an opinion,

cheers

Hello Hanif. I saw long time no so original photo. It is simply great. It lifts itself well off from the many boring pictures, which one sees otherwise. Really absolutely protruding and worth seeing. Best regards, Wolfgang.

a funny thumb, thought he was in the trunk :-).. this is a very nice piece of photo journalism, quite underrated.. i like how you included the gas station, perhaps including the wheels would have been good too...

Hi Hanif!
Incredible!!! From the thumbnail, I was really wondering what was happening there.
And, once I opened the photo, I was even more surprised! That's really something I would not see in my country. And not in many countries, I think. Hence, the value of your photo.
And this man is smiling! I'm impressed.
The photo could use a little bit more contrast, but I don't care much about it. The subject is more important.

Hi Hanif,

difficult to belief this poor way of life. But it show us again the good life that most of the people in the west leads. Let them look at your image and appreciate more what they have!

Hi Hanif
really nice photo, very funny situation for our eyes, but for him is work, part of his daily life.
the composition is good but I would have loved to see his legs. Few steps back from your POV...
well done

hi muhammad,
I love those "everyday life" scenes... showing the true face of the life of those people... what I like the most about your picture is the funny situation of the man... it is very impressive...

well done

Hello Hanif,
How strange spectacle! you have captured it very well with a lucid composition. Wasn't he angry?
