Fruits of Life, a photo from Ha Noi, Red River Delta

Photographer's Note

While focusing on capturing the fruit the Vietnamese woman was carrying, I omitted her face, purely by accident. I like the results and angle, just lucky.

Hello Chuck,
I also like the results. :-) The fruit seems to be suspended in midair, and I like the background of stones on the floor, and the dark wall. I think getting only a glimpse of the woman is very effective.

yes, the image is interesting, and the very sharp plate with fruit is very eye catching.
The light is also excellent

Hello Chuck,

Sometimes you get something you're not really looking for, and sometimes it just might even be better than what you were looking for in the first place. Here, omitting the woman's face, just feels right. Full focus on the star fruit, the woman carrier left vague, yet with the typical clothes and sandels very recognizablly present. Good colour scheme and choice of format too.
