Photographer’s Note
A difficult place to get the right exposure. The sun on the wall has created an impression of the woman being surrounded by a large halo. The picture is taken in Tarrafal, a small town on the northern tip of Santiago island.

Hi Gert
Despite the exposure problem, you've got a good photo anyway.
Nice to see the produce in orderly fashion.

The composition is a little daring with the so bright light on the wall, nevertheless the woman seller is very well represented and her display of vegetables is interesting to see - great colours, too,
TFS,
Cath.

Hej Gert,
the most curious thing about it is the following: it seems that the woman prefers to stay in the sun rather than in the shade!
The bright sunshine and contrast makes it very difficult to take a photo in such conditions, but I think that in this case it is only a "plus" for the photo :-)
Kind regards,
Elena
