Again, thank you both for responding to this image. I like it partly because the people we saw were so open and friendly and presented their "happy faces" to us, which was pleasant, but this image seems to capture a subdued thoughtful aspect.
The light is spectacular. I remember that dark market -- you made good use of a slow shutter speed here, which is remarkable, considering that this is a long telephoto image. Yet it is razor sharp -- no camera movement , and you hold great detail in the mask like face.
