Hello Patrick
Excellent street photograph: I can't decide whether or not the subject is aware of your camera's presence. The expression would have made a good close portrait, but I much prefer the environmental version you've given us.
PS: no d'Yquem for us for New Year (nor Pétrus either for that matter!) But we did broach a bottle of Penfold's Grange given to me when I retired which was stupendous. Don't suppose you go in for Aussie wines, but this is definitely a Grand Premier Cru.
Regards
Will

Hello Patrick - I like the relaxed look that the watermelon lady displays here. Her posture and open and alert face and the direction of her gaze tempt me to seek for a narrative to her life and immediate relationships. Nicely composed with the indicators to her profession clearly present this is a super DL shot. Warm regards Rosemary

Bonjour Patrick,
Nous avons au moins une photo en commun, à cette différence près que ces pastèques-là paraissent bien discrètes comparées à leurs cousines slaves, autrement calibrées. Mais apparemment, elles font le bonheur de cette vendeuse souriante qui ajoute de la bonne humeur et un côté spontané et vivant à cette prise de vue.
Une image très sympathique !
Amicalement,
Christian

Bonjour Patrick,
Elles semblent avoir la joie de vivre en elles ces belles asiatiques. J'ai constaté qu'elles sont très souriantes. Elles semblent aussi trouver confortable , cette position assis/accroupi. Un très beau portrait de cette vendeuse de melons.

Hello Patrick,
There are lots of nice smiles in Vietnam and they make street-photography even more entertaining. These colours are very pleasant and I like the tight cropping (probably out of necessity since I know how chaotic the streets can be).
Kind regards,
Gert

Ciao Patrick
hai colto una delle scene tipiche della regione indocinese con i contadini che offrono i loro prodotti in mercati improvvisati.
Molto ben fatta la composizione e piacevole il contrrasto tra la frutta messa in mostra ed il soggetto che attende sorridente gli eventuali acquirenti.
Una bella scena di strada valorizzata da una buona ripresa.
Complimenti
Ciao e buona serata

Salut cher Patrick
Bonne annee mon ami. I truly hope that 2014 brings you everything you dream of. A stunning portrait, as is your usual high standard. This lady has a diamond smile and I love how she looks away from the camera but still gives you the benefit of that lovely face and smile. Wonderful rich colours and contrasts. The watermelons provide yet another impressive element for the photo.
Warmest wishes
Lisa

Hello Patrick,
well captured scene with very well given proportions to all details of the composition. The green watermelons draw attention and add vivid color to the picture. The woman proves to be great model and her smile is not only very cheerful but also very natural.
Good framing, sharpness and colors.

Hi Patrick
It's a vibrant street shot superbly cropped as we are treated to some brilliant colors pulling the eye to the prominent with the fg green melons creating interest making this more significant. Wonderful tones in good clarity and contrast, I love the title too for you have captured the moment in a finely composed shot and a slice of life. Congrats. tfs

Hi Patrick
so did you buy anything? haha
I don't like to purchase meat on the street, fruit seems to be a safer choice. and its usually fresher, and often you can find fruit on your travels that you can't find at home - whereas chicken and beef are the same everywhere :)
in this little photo there's a punch of color in many different places. and yes, nice smile too.
cheers

Bonjour Patrick,
Au cours des quelques voyages que j'ai pu faire,les ballades dans ces marchés locaux (et particulièrement dans les pays asiatiques) on souvent été des moments très forts.On quitte les magasins et points de vente pour touristes pour côtoyer la vie réelle des habitants de ces pays.
Très bonnes prise de vue ,pleine de vie, et qui reflète bien l'atmosphère de ces marchés.Bonne composition et le sourire de cette marchande nous met de bonne humeur pour le reste de la journée.
Amicalement.
Patrick

Patrick ,
I like this environmental portrait, and in general I find them better than normal portraits…This photo tells a story. Colours are well balanced and pleasing to the eye, such as blue shirt, ochre background and of course, green watermelons in the foreground. Composition is nice, and from this one can learn something. I have also enjoyed taking such photos but with ultra wide angle lens, where you can capture the entire human figure plus the surrounding area easily. Still there’s much to learn. But more than anything in this photo, I appreciate the smile. It’s very nice.
Regards,
Petar
