As night comes to this tiny plaza in the center of Guanajuato, patrons line up for a quick snack from one the many food vendors who take over its sidewalks. This was a hand-held image, made without a flash at a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second. There was enough light from the one overhead bulb to illuminate the vendor, and partially light the customer who is eating his snack on the left. This image uses abstraction to simplify composition. Because I never use a flash, I can make use of natural shadows to suggest, rather than reveal information. The emphasis is on the vendor. He is well defined, while the two customers and the dark atmosphere add context for meaning.
