Coriander

Or 'Cilantro' to some of you who don't speak English ;0) I feel like I'm running my own parallel theme for ineligible shots this week! I loved this man in Marrakech - such a kind-looking face.
great colours and portrait

Terrific 'slice of life' shot!!!
March 1st, 2012  
Absolutely. Love this scene!

Yes... it's a really natural relaxed beauty.

...And by keeping your feet in a plastic bag saves on cleaning too!

Great portrait! He looks so relaxed!

@caddick That plastic bag is so annoying - wish I could have moved it temporarily!

Lovely picture. You see things like this in Jerusalem too. I'd love to know what some of the stuff is that they sell and what you're supposed to do with it.

I like taking photos of old people too. I expect that's his livelihood.

@cgould I bought some weird looking stuff at the market in Whitechapel once and I just asked the stall-holder - he told me what to do with it but it tasted pretty horrible!!

Great face! Coriander is used in so many dishes...it's quite strong with an odd taste. I have it in my garden but it's gone to seed. Last used it in a raw beet salad.

I know what you mean about the plastic bag without it this shot would look timeless

Great character shot! @judithg Do you ask permission, or was it candid?
March 1st, 2012  
@hamble No I'm afraid I didn't ask. He was engrossed so I just took a quick shot.

Great capture

Lovely composition, you have got a great shot of him.
March 1st, 2012  
Simply excellent! That textured wall is the perfect backdrop for this timeless and fabulous shot. Love it!
March 1st, 2012  
Lovely portrait shot.
March 1st, 2012  
I really love this shot. I agree that, ideally, the plastic bag wouldn't be there but it's a lovely photo so Fav.
March 1st, 2012  
Oh, and I love coriander.
March 1st, 2012  
I disagree, I thinik the plastic bag shows that he shops at the supermarket just like anyone else!
March 1st, 2012  
Sweet face and the color and detail of the coriander is so perfect I can smell it
March 1st, 2012  
Great portrait. Love your Marrakech series.
