Nice Composition and good DOF usage. What I like most is the mask(?) on the left which seems to imitate the smile of the sales man. His right shoulder is a little washed out but that doesn't disturb the picture.

Good capture of the smile in this vendors face. I particularly like that you got 3 smiles at the same moment. The vendor and his two art ornaments in the background. It is particularly nice that you were able to include in your picture what he is selling. The vendor has clear brazilian native indian ancestry.
I know this art quite well from the time I lived in Brazil. This are dryed fruits of "pumpkin" like plants. They are used as kitchen utensilies or just as decoration by painting or wood carving.
Oh, by the way, thanks for creating TE. This is a great forum!
