Photographer’s Note
Now I have been thinking for quite a while whether to post this picture or not. I find some of the essence of street-trading here. A simple scene of a generation meeting. Easy to guess who is the seller and who keeps the receipts.
The weather was quite bad, it has been raining for the whole day. Not the best time to walk around the city with a camera. I decided to sit down and let the world around me spin. Amazing how the point of view changes when you pause for a moment, stop walking and start looking around.
Perfect moment to take the shot, to frame and freeze a fleeting period of time.

Hola Michal, buena foto esta de la vida cotidiana, me agradan las expresiones que captaste, la actitud de ambas personas... el toque de blanco y negro le da un aire de seriedad a la imagen, que es compatible con la idea de que se toman el trabajo muy en serio...
El grano, es un complemente que me agrada bastante...
Abrazos...
