Not the same kind of candy shop that 50 cents showed us in his clip, but it's nice, isn't it? Ok bad for the teeth -_-. Actually I wanted something closer to the candies, but I'm still a really shy photographer :p, so I took this in place. I'm quite happy with the photo, and was pleased to see that only the sellers face is visible... I like the effect. For the processing, I tried to color balance myself, but as I already said I'm colorblind... I added some blue and some cyan, was it the good choice?
Thank you everybody for the comment on yesterday's photo. The problem I had was that I wanted to keep it colored, because it was going really well with the photo's mood. My description was because of the frustration I had, having to desaturate the photo in the end because I wasn't able to process it correctly. I also wanted to apologize, for not letting more comments to more people, it's really busy for me at the moment, but I'll come back full power soon (I hope :p)
Good lighting. Very good photo.

I like where you have taken the photo from mate. Are those 2 green dots glow sticks?

Hhm... this makes me think: let's get a little warmer with some candies! Nice shot.

Hey Cyrille, know what you mean about digital processing, It can be infuriating at times. Love the lighting in thsi one and the sellers expression is great.

I love the warm atmosphere in this shot: buying hot food in the nighttime outdoors is such a comforting experience. I like they way the customers here are back-lit by the lightbulbs. The colours looks spot-on to me, by the way.
