[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Around markets or just on the streets, business is everywhere.
This is Old Harbour Bay, the shabby street to the shabby fishing harbour which is just a beach and a dozen little boats and some wooden marketstands that will be blown away during the next hurricane.

Hello Gerrit,
A good street candid of these two ladies doing business together. Everything is shown in its context. Very good colours and clarity.

Hi Gerrit,
no place where I would expect any business. A good lesson with both trading ladies very well in focus.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hello Gerrit. The photo pleases me well. It is an alive and and everyday life shot worth seeing. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hi Gerrit

Good composition, using the rule of thirds, & although these women wouldn't win any awards for beauty or deportment, they do add an authentic charm to this superb daily life scene. Well done!

A storytelling image. Gives a very good impression. I like it.
Best wishes,
Achim

Good balanced daily life compo, Gerrit, "TE material" with two interesting ladies... well done, Daniel

Dag Gerrit,

De beweging van de rok van de dame rechts wijst aan dat er wel degelijk wat wind staat.
Maar u was opnieuw op de goede plaats, waar er handel gedreven werd, of is dit de fijne hollandse neus waar eventjes zaken te doen zijn!
Goede daily life foto met deze dames in het hoofd front.
Bedankt!

Groeten,
John.

Hi Gerrit,
These women both have a serious expression on their faces which comes with the exchange of hard earned money. Excellent warm colors and fine details to this daily life beauty.
Regards, Tom

Gerrit,
I really don't want to know what is being the business there. It doesn't seem to very promising although the scene was well seen and captured. I twould have been nice to have the seller holding the merchandise while the buyer is checking the money.

Hi Gerrit,
I like specially the position of the ladies in the photography and its gestures....
I don't know, they aren't saying anything but their faces speak by them. Their glances go to the same site.......very interesting context!

Salut, Jordi

Whay yah say Gerrit..!

I like the way the white skirt skips up high in the wind while the black scandal bag hangs steady and strong on the forearm. And still the money gets counted, and still in the wind every turn of the paper note is watched quite carefully.

In the colours of her flag, is she the buyer or the seller? Who is the richer or the poorer?

A good capture of the hustle and bustle that goes on day in and day out.

Great shot..

Hello Gerrit,

Géniale, cette image de vie quotidienne en Jamaïque !

I didn't see lot of pictures from Jamaica on TE. So yours are interesting. This conversation is nice. The strict profil is good and the scene very well composed.
Excellent
