The essence of South East Asia in one shot.

You use the frame of your camera to create a strongly graphic set of symbols that characterize this place. As John points out, your soft coloration, which is so often at the heart of your style, plays a role in setting the tone here. He also mentions the flow of motion, created by the diagonal of the hat, playing against the horizontal flow of the siding. But the key is how you use your frame to abstract the subject and juxtapose it against the wall and the writing to both imply and symbolize meaning. This is Southeast Asia, in microcosm. This would make a striking travel poster.

This is a wonderful image with a strong sense of motion taking on many directions. The soft hues add to the feeling of place along with the writing on the wall.
