Goodness! I don't know how they manage to carry so much and how do they see where they're going? Very good entry for the contest showing the typical beach scene. Very good lighting and focus. I like the shadows on the sand. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

not very heavy to carry

Comment from karen zima
I hope he sells some. It seems like a lot of work carrying them in the hot sun. Love all the colors and the story that this leaves in your mind. He is nicely framed off to the lower right. This is an overall pleasing photo to view.

Comment from nikman
Looks like a great spot to enjoy beach life presented here! Are they lifebelts that are trying to be sold? Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

many thanks nik;
looks like life belts but they are just for children

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
This is an interesting shot. The lone figure of the vendor with colourful baloons makes it an interesting viewing. Fine composition, bright colours and very good light makes this first rate. Good luck!

Look like a great place to visit for sure. Personally i would have used my scale and lighting up the background some, would help with seeing the activities going on in the background. The dof and over scene looks interesting, all the best in the contest

thanks ; cannot agree: there is no particular activity in the bg; just an uninteresting village; highlighting the bg would just get a busy bg, taking away from the subject;

Comment from michiganmike
A very well composed shot. I like the way the vendor is laden with his wares of rainbow hues. The diagonal shoreline the the mountains along the horizon are outstanding.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
An interesting picture of the beach vendor almost hidden by his inflated rings & cushions for sale a sunbeam shining down upon him as he casts his shadow on the sand at the water's edge the sea & mountains appear to be in the shade of a cloud. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
