She Sells Salmon

She Sells Salmon by Ron Scubadiver, on Flickr

I love doing portraits of strangers, as is, where is.  This place sold New Zealand farmed salmon and was a good 30 miles from the nearest town on the shore of a huge lake.

A long canal was built to take water from this lake (Pukaki) to a watershed (Waitaki) that already had several hydro dams on it.  It was cheaper to build the canal than to build a new dam.  The salmon are farmed in cages in this canal.

I like her smile and the impression that you caught a lively moment. It would be nice to actually see that she sells salmon!

Vibrant image, but nothing there that says salmon to me.

Mt cook alpine salmon" on the shirt, "caviar 100grs" on the board... if not in the tittle I will not probably get it but I don´t really care. Fresh, fun and close up relation with the model comes through the image. She looks very attractive beyond the physical and that is very elusive in a photo, let alone from someone you don´t know.

   Great job Ron
