Comment by Melethia:
I don't get "wasted" from this - I get the perplexing, frustrating, "why me?" teenage angst from this. While it may have been posed, it doesn't feel like it - feels like a stolen moment. Nice work with the light, too.

To the speed voter you'll prolly get a low or average vote, but if the person spends any time appreciating the textures, lighting, and shadows along with the crop and post processing,they'll realize that this is a very good image. I'm not usually a fan of centering the subject like you have, but with the environment they're in, it works well.

...yeah only if we could see exchange of money and goods maybe you should have tried to take a closer image...maybe two hands one is giving vegetables the other money...and there is too much distraction from the background...If look longer I'll like the background more, looks like somewhere in Britain? You should have cut the photo and stick only to the market place
