It has been said that the person should not be in the centre of the picture - why ever not? It is this very fact that gives this shot the ultra dynamism. Here is SHE, the Weary One. She wants to be the centre of attention and she is rightly so. Why stick her head ina pile of bananas? Gorgeous picture.

Tells the story of life in the streets of India -- the body language and expression is supported by context that enhances meaning. The colorful fruit incongruously sits on a wagon that looks 100 years old. If you can place your subjects to the left or the right of the frame, instead of in the center, you will make your images more dynamic and less static and predictable.
