Shop Keeper in Peshawar

Thanks for comments and rating. Karl

Karl, I can just about smell it. This is excellent, well framed and balanced. If I were to do anything to it, I might be inclined to tone down the two flouros in the back of the shop. They pull the eye away from the interesting FG.

Peshawar for me is a country "behind the dark mountain".... and still the elements of composition are looking very familiar....;-)) It is very well composed and balanced frame . For me the strong spices colors are not disturbing, as the bright clothes of the store keeper are a good contrast also by the man's size. The FG and BG imo are well framing the middle.

Dear Jeff and Pnina,

 

thanks for your comments. Based on Jeffs suggestion I have removed the lamps in the print version. I hope the changes will be soon visible in the photo.net version.

Pnina, behind the dark mountains is perhaps the center of the world ;-)). Karl

It's changed in the large view, and it looks a lot better IMHO.

Perheps Karl.... ;-)) ( and Jeff is right about the lamps)

Great composition, colour and exposure, very interesting image.

Perfect composition. Beautiful colors. I usually don't like the color orange, but this photo is beautiful, because of the orange spices and bowls. The light is just right and the positioning of the bags and bowls is perfect.
