I missed it at first, but if you look closely there's a guy with a fez (the resistance leader) in the photo as well (centre left), and a female customer too his right (err his left, our right) in the back..probably to pick up some secret message...great disguise, they all appear to fit right in..... :wink:

Lovely shot Mike - really like that one, and (yet) another lovely picture from the kit lens.

I love it!!! :D

Morocco is a wonderful place to take photos! I spent a few weeks travelling around there in 2006 and would like to go back. Actually, I lived in Casablanca for a couple of years when I was a child -- 1961-63. I was too young to remember much, but it was cool to go back to Morocco a couple of years ago. I have some photos on my website:

Wow! What a fun picture! I love the depth and the busy clutter of the shop. I might crop the man out of the right hand side of the image though, its distracting to have him cut off at the shoulder. It's such a beautiful place, though. An excellent capture.

I second this, also color-wise he's a bit off. Great picture, the warm colors together the variety of items on display is really attractive.
