Nice lighting with the long shadows which adds to the real feel of this image. I am quite happy 'as it is' because the inclusion of some of the area sets the scene and helps tell the story. A good title too!

Neil.

I think the framing is fine and I like the way the light falls on the stall and man which makes the important part of the scene stand out. I just find the bright top right hand corner a bit distracting, could this be darkened a little?

Tony, to be honest I never noticed the over-bright top R/H corner! It is a good point and I think it would benefit the photograph, Thank you for pointing it out. - John.

I like this picture but instead of burning in the top right corner, how about dodging the top left? That way you bring the passer-by out of the shade.

Now that's another suggestion to ponder! So many possibilities in one print. I am starting to enjoy this Forum! - John.
