This image is indeed very similar in concept, Shirley, to my image athttp://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/58762514 . You are right -- your woman stands much closer to her goods than my man does. She seems to take a physical interest in her veggies while she reads, while my vendor distances himself from all his papers except the one in hand. I am not sure you can say that the newspaper dealer has less interest in his business than this vegetable lady, however. I think he stands where he stands because that is simply where he feels most comfortable leaning against the ledge. There are elements of incongruity in both images -- most of your vegetables are behind a fence, asking the viewer to wonder how they can be easily sold. Meanwhile, the newspapers draped over that bike is very incongruous and quite ingenious.
