Fahim Mohammed: Making a Sale
Fahim,
Interesting that hardly anything in the west is advertised by blue! Almost no designer stores give blue bags. So I guess this is a little below that level of chic!
It's not clear what exactly is being sold except she's clutching two lots of money. I'd like to know more. where is this and what is she selling?
I wonder what's on your mind these days. I see increasing evidence of post processing. Here there's an aggressive exploitation of skin structure. The best development for this might the the world of B&W, where you will be at home! Here, with this present photograph, at least you might consider masking over the edges of her body to abolish halo.

Asher, thanks for stopping by and your comments ( detailed and succinct as always ). You are correct in that I am trying my hand at various post processing techniques. And got me some filters and am having a ball experimenting with them.
Some are gimmicky for sure, but some have value. I also need to brush up on my PS knowledge, which is getting rusty. I have limited myself to just a few available options. Need to acquaint myself with some more tools.
I shall redo as you correctly suggested and go easy on some pp..to avoid the halo effects.
The photograph was taken in the north of Nepal in a Sherpa village. I stayed there for five days. This lady would set up shop at the same corner every morning; selling mostly fruits and veggies. Often she would include clothing.
She started tolerating me hanging around; actually we became rather well acquainted.
Language was a barrier, but we managed. Once or twice I carried her fruit basket for her!!. Lovely woman.
Thanks for your time. Always appreciated sir.

There are two, Fahim!
Yours, the first, taken at noon, ......
....mine taken in the evening, perhaps, in softer light.

It all depends Asher...on how I feel at that moment...
But I do search for a certain level of maturity at all times....

You think I didn't notice it. Sometimes they wear it as a talisman to ward of evil. I have to find out if me is the evil. No?
If a ring deters you, you are not my travel companion!!
Take care Asher and stay well.
p.s have to add...it depends on what one hopes to gain by the exchange in the first instance. I like to
get to know people. Nothing more, nothing less.

You have seen me get to know young and old all over the places I have visited and posted here.
It is just my charm that does it...Ask Ayesha!!
