Photographer’s Note
'Don't ask me what to do, I only sell the things!' Well I made that response up, but I thought it time for another Python quote, and the 'self defence against fresh fruit' sketch came to mind with this, especially with her expression.

I like the very-very natural poses. Great composition, too. The background works well – it is colorful and detailful – but simple at the same time. I like how the fruits/vegetables can be found in the posters, too. The motion blur in the hand is a great detail that gives a lot of information about the moment you´ve captured. Excellent work, Richard.

you've managed to capture their natural expressions very well. I love the market atmosphere, and this is a very colorful one.

Hey Richard, nice one for the theme! I once sent Luko a picture in which one of my friends was operating on a watermelon with a victorinox, as a matter of selfdefence against fruit. I did not want to post it, as the picture itself had nothng attractive, and Luko said that watermelons were not in the sketch. ;-)
This is a nice, very colourful picture, and seeing those Spanish strawberries, the water is running down my mouth. He indeed could be asking that to the lady: what, if......

very nice take, I like the expression of this lady, she seems confused, but the lay out of her fruits are superb, well shown here

Hi Richard
Excellent sharpness, colour, saturation, & well managed interior lighting (not always easy to do!). I like the interplay between the buyer & seller. Well seen!

lots of colour in this 'fruity' image - the slight blur on the hand of the man adds some dynamism to the shot - well seen :)

great picture, i really like this monte python theme i just discovered and this is one of the better shots i think. but i might be biased because the bananna sketch is probably my favorite... the expressions and the colors are nice and you managed to get a great POV, too, i think. good job.
