I honestly do not know which image to go for.
Which one do you all like? Looks like this had a slight edge on the other after one hour.

In the busy market of Rasheed, Egypt, a vendor pauses with his horse and cart among the everyday movement of the streets.
The photograph is a small glimpse into a working life — a moment that might otherwise disappear into the noise and bustle of the market.
Behind this bridge are the tanneries of Chouara. Not as bad as the jobs in the excellent movie of that title. But no jobs you could do to an orderly retirement at the age of 65.
The heaps on the left are the remainders of the animal skins not useable in the leather production.
This young man and others in his department do a grand job in keeping Herford clean and tidy. Without him and other like him I dread to think what our town would be like.
A quick word about the camera. I love it for several reasons. The focusing is great for my needs, the colours are vibrant
and apart from a few quirks it's easy to use. I have found today that you need to do very little editing to the RAW pictures which is a real bonus. To me this is my Leica M9 without the fear of it being stolen.
"Pivotal Turn" two of six Georg Baselitz paintings at the Met Museum.
Da. Portrait (Franz Dahlem) 1969
Workingman From Dresden, Portrait of M.G.B. 1969
This workman is actually a working member of staff acting the role of a workman at home from the coal mine. The setting is a real miner's house at the Dudley "Black Country" Museum. It was where the scenes from the TV series, Peaky Blinders, was set.
There would be no camera to record this sort of history so I decided to convert the photograph into an oil painted creation.
My neighbor brought home a massive trailer last week and hired Joey Sutherland of 'White Stag Concepts' to weld rails on it. I was sitting in the big chair and could hear him out there as the sun was setting, on a whim I donned the long lens and asked him if I could take a shot. I only took the one, luckily it turned out, enough so that he put it on the top of his web page. :-) His welds are terrific by the way and he enjoys custom art and projects if you are in the market. (no, I wasn't paid for the photo or the plug....) :-)
blow it up and check out the arcs on his visor, way cool, and thanks for stopping by.
