In the Market, a photo from Puebla, Central Highlands

Photographer's Note

On mother's day, in a little town in the State of Puebla.

A visit to the market with cooks preparing "mole, carnitas, tortillas"; while waiting for their clients.

Noise... smell... anticipation...

Hola, Don Carlos!
Bienvenido de vuelta a TE!
Me encanta esta foto... la luz de fondo que describe la cara y pelo de la mujer, el tamaño impresionante de los tazones, y las salpicaduras de color en el fondo.
¡Ay! Tengo hambre!

Hola Carlos
Esa gran cazuela y ese comal donde se fríen las quesadillas... y la cuchara de madera. Hasta percibo el aroma del mole. Has captado bien un momento cotidiano.

Saludos
Pedro

Hello Carlos

you have captured the atmosphere well here. You have controlled DOF perfectly and managed the light well too giving just a little rim light along the profile of the woman's face who is a picture of concentration.

You have used the giant bowl and spoon in the Fg to create the Fg interest and draws us in too.

I feel hungry now!

Hello Carlos,

I love this one! I can almost smell the delicious aromas of cooking in this interesting market.

You have composed this one perfectly: that huge earthenware bowl and its massive stirrer dominates the foreground and both it and the lady in blue are stunningly detailed and sharp against a wonderfully soft and out of focus background. But we can still see activity in the background too as other cooks prepare different foods - and we can see people off to the left eating as well.

Wonderful light and strong vibrant colours, fine composition, perfect exposure and exquisite details and sharpness. And good use of a wide aperture and shallow depth of field.

Wonderful!

Kind Regards,

John.
