 In my town, there are dozens of street vendors like this man. This is on the main commercial street in my town, about 10am this morning. I see this guy, or someone like him, every single day. I desaturated at -70 and did a little sepia to give it an old fashion feel - don't ask me why - it just seemed the thing to do:)

I really like the post-processing you did on this -- it definitely adds to the image.

I think the desat works great. Gives it that smooth, comfy feel to the pic.

It looks like the woman near the vendor stole her hat from the man at the front of the picture! :) They match. Good pic, I like the feel here. We have nothing like this around me, so I think this is so neat.

I think you may be in one of the few environments where everyone nods when you describe a post-processing decision as "it just seemed like the thing to do." :)

I love this shot -- it's a great little slice of life.
