Well, I think the 2nd one is better, but . . . Subash, if you want to
showcase the color, shapes, patterns & textures, I'd just stand in front &
shoot the booth & all it's contents. If you want to add the guy, walk to
the right of the frame, strike up conversation with the guy, then get a
portrait of him in sharp focus with his wares in the background. If you
want to shoot the purses, get in tight & shoot them. That's just me.
Ignore everything if I'm off target. :-) Cheers, Christine

Well, you asked......
This kind of shot screams for depth of field.
Lots and lots of it.
You've made a slim band of focus surrounded by murk.
The guy in the background, I presume he is the hawker of wares, is
actually really disturbing, as he is not in focus, but at the same
time looks unnaturally sharp along the edges.
And his face hs a pole stuck in it.
I like the concept very much, but for me, this is one of those times
where the idea doesn't overcome the technical problems.
Bill, appreciate your comments. here's another shot at f8. but,
couldn't do anything about the pole stuck in his face. ;-)
