23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Seller Man

On a cold day while walking around the city of Bursa in Turkey, I stopped at this stall to buy a warm cup of roasted chestnuts. My camera was, as always, with me, so I asked the vendor if I could photograph him, and he agreed. Using the stall he had carefully decorated as a natural frame, I captured his portrait.
