Taken at Easton Farmers' Market. I spotted the man with the cane and knew I wanted a shot of him for this challenge. The other mane just happened into the frame unexpectedly.

the entering face gives this great depth in more than one way.
A fortunate coincidence for sure. More times than not this would have become a throw away or I would have cropped differently. This time I was thankful.
A simple man, a simple life. This would have been fantastic in b&w.
You would think, but no, it really doesn't. I spent significant time with it in B&W and while the subject looked great I couldn't get the opposing face to do much other than blend in with the background, and I wanted it to stand out at least a little rather than just be there to be discovered.
Ordinarily I would say the man's face in the foreground on the right should have been left out, but the way it fits into the scene is great. I like this a lot.
