Candid of market man peeling peas. He pulled down his surgical mask to smoke a cigarette.
Thanks for the high votes and nice collection of comments. It appears staged but wasn't. He looked at me, the tourist with a camera, as i pushed the shutter button. His cluttered environment fell into place.

I can't tell if this is posed or a street shot, but in the end it doesn't matter because either way the image says a lot about your subject and his environment. Nice job.
This to me is the perfect entry for this challenge - the subject is doing what his environment is explaining and is engaging the photographer. The photo also tells a good story, but also defines the subject well.
