~ flower seller ~, a photo from Ha Noi, Red River Delta

Photographer's Note

Every day from well before sunrise to late at night, people living across the Red River ride on the Long Bien Bridge to sell a few goods from their garden, in the streets of Hanoi. Flower sellers get up really early, cross the bridge and spend most of the day walking up and down the streets of the Old Quarter.

At the end of the day, tired but with a little bit of money to eat, they return home, sleep and the next day they start all over again.

A slight overcast late afternoon shot, it's colourful but it hides a hard life.

Hello Abmdsudi,
Excellent capture of this hard working flower seller returning home after a long day. The close crop is well chosen showing her with the unsold blooms and so allowing us to focus on the subject. I like the low light and colours. Very good sharpness.

Hello, Abmdsudi!

Beautiful composition that is also a very nice portrait of this flower seller, with the flowers giving more colors and interest to the image! The light has been perfectly managed and the sharpness is also excellent! Wonderful job!

Bonjour Abmdsudi,

J'aime vraiment beaucoup cette composition parfaitement divis閑 entre les fleurs � vendre et la vendeuse par jour de pluie. 蓆onnant de constater � quel point les couleurs ressortent bien malgr� la pluie.

Amicalement

Ciao Abmdsudi
mi piace molto la foto del ws, mentre trovo lo sguardo di questa donna dignitoso.
Hai scattato due belle foto, difficile decidere la migliore.
Saluti

Hello

Another great image of the common worker. We all alter our lifestyles according to our incomes. I see a worker whos life is simple and uncomplicated. Which for many of us may be a blessing. Here where I live, Life is fast paced and based on accomplishment. Tends to suck the real life out of you. Great image to study. Life should be so simple

Hi, Abmdsudi.
A fascinating composition of this flower seller, the set is ideal, the character, the bicycle and that big basket in the same laden with beautiful flowers.
A very beautiful photo. Sharpness, exposure, colors, horizontal format, point of view and the composition chosen are excellent.
Very good work. I like it.
You have a good day.
Best regards.

Hello, Abmdsudi!

Excellent use of a shallow dof in this superb daily life scene. Good sharpness on the woman, her bike and the flowers. She even has some water to stop them wilting in the heat! Tfs!
