Photographer’s Note
I find it very amusing that many people in Vietnam take a nap in public, at the market, in their moped taxi etc. this picture was taken in the egg section of the market, where you can find many different kinds of eggs, from the traditional ones to the more bizarre, like "the 100 year old eggs", covered with tea, ashes and lime. they are kept in clay pots and covered with soil for 100 days.(not years)Then when you open the egg the inside looks a bit green.
those eggs are very popular. they do taste good.

Indeed Vanessa,
your point of view make this exhibition of eggs enormous, who can fall a sleep next such a quantity of eggs, what a contradiction here, nicely spotted !

Belle compo, représente bien la vie de tous les jours sur les marchés asiatiques …
C’est un peu la caverne d’Ali Baba dans les marchés… on trouve de tout ….
Surprenant l’acclimatation du sommeille des personnes dans ce monde bruyant, ça me fascine…il dorme partout… c'est marant...
en attente de belles photos…

Bonjour Vanessa,
J'aime beaucoup ta composition ! Ces oeufs présents partout, laissant juste un peu de place à leur vendeuse pour une petite sieste...
Les coquilles blanches ressortent parfaitement sur les paniers et assiettes marrons, j'aime bien !
Amicalement,
Youssef.

Very nice shot. Perhaps you can crop it a little bit more. I will do a WS on it. Perhaps you will like that.
How o you make that frame. I am trying but it doesn't work.Perhaps you can explain me how it goes.

Voilà la photo de la vendeuse d'ouefs que tu m'as introduit dans ton commentaire. J'aime le juste quantité de lumière que on regarde dans la photo: Les oeufs ne sont pas surexposés. Et c'est si beau le details de la femme qui dorm. Salutations!
