Street Vendor Photo

Photographer’s Note

At one of the busy streets in Puerto Vallarta, this vendor selling small handicraft works caught my attention. It was not her handicraft that caught my attention but her colorful dress and neatness. Her hair is well combed, her dress and pleated skirt are clean and well pressed. She is not the tyical street vendor. She also chose a shaded area away from the heavy pedestrian traffic area. This work is probably just a hobby fo her and not her main means of income.

PP Work: Adjust levels control; Adjust saturation; Balance color adjustment; Sharpen; Remove noise; Crop; Frame; Decreasesize for posting.

Hi Andre,
Very nice portrait of this old woman in the street. I like the low angle and the POV. Very well done!

Bonjour Andre,
Lovely capture! I especially like the nice soft background for the bright coloured shirt and handicraft.
And, just like Ioannis, I think you got a perfect low point of view, well done!
