What I like:
- full DoF

What I don't like:
- light is harsh on the fishmonger's face. I can only see what one of his hands is doing and the angle of his head makes it seem like he was interrupted from his work

Overall: love the idea and framing of this shot but wish it showed more of how the man was preparing the fish. As an action shot it lacks intention for me.

Great shot. Not only does it tell its own great story but brings back memories of a trip to Ascension Island!

I appreciate the realism here. The content is great. The POV is snap-shottish but exposure, color and clarity are excellent. 6
