I found this chap peddling his wares in the covered market of my local town in south western France. "Un vannier" is the French name for what would be a basket weaver in English. It is with good fortune that this profession is very sedate as there was little in the way of daylight supplemented by a few electric pendants hanging from the old old trusses.
I was disappointed by his choice of blue fleece (with which to keep the winter chill at bay) as all the other colours and textures in the scene were warm and timeless. Being stuck with it, I decided to desaturate a little and then advance the blue slider to enhance what couldn't be hidden. A touch of vignette to eliminate distractions and this is what I ended up with.
