a day's profit...

India Agra
Strolling in the maze of Agra's market,as the days business was gradually settling down and the scanty evening light could hardly permit a good sight in the interior of the inummerable untidy and smelly shops, my eye cought a typical merchant in the course -of what was so obvious- counting the day's profit!..His dubious and untrustful glance was as facing a...tax officer!

He looks at the camera with suspicion :-)
May be can't understand why somebody is making a picture of him.
Good work Alexander!

As well as not liking having you 'shoot' him, perhaps the days takings were poor........
An excellent capture.

handling figures and figuring out people ; ) – two skills that make a good merchant! the piercing glance makes me suspect he's learned is business well, calculating people's intentions and desires and judging situations correctly to know exactly, where and when to make profit, and when to save himself the trouble – a priceless gift!
; )) greetings, sabine.

he is cooking the books, is he :-))) but then, he could just be annoyed that you are keeping a record of him with your camera .... a fine street capture, Alexander, well composed and effective in black and white !!!
greetings, Adele

.... maybe not such a good day's trading or perhaps he has a 'poker' face.
Very nice capture Alexander.
