She's got some melons!
Seriously the WB in the first looks spot on and is very good. The shot is very personal and suits the environment well. The wider shot the WB in the last one isnt as great nor is the expression.

Alex I like them both as they give a feel for what it is like to work from a boat. My only real critique would be to make the background more out of focus to give emphasis to the lady and boat

Nito,
Those are not melons or watermelons, they're grapefruits, a kind of sweet grapefruit in the SEA, Vietnamese we call: "BUOI".

Nice Shots, Alex. I have been to those same floating markets and you have captured the atmosphere well. I'd share some of my own photos, but they are all film shots!

Hi Alex,
your photos bring back fond memories.
btw the fruit is pomello, a very delicious giant grape fruit.
I'm on the look out for those.
Cheers,
CD

You can buy them in Bankstown! Heap of them around here in Sydney and we served them sometime at the mini meets.
