[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the sweets he has in the box are called 'freska';which is tradtional sweet sold in alexandria, usually by the beach and creaks and its very common for very young guys like the one in the photo, and somtimes old men, to be seen walking around with a box on their shoulder, selling them and calling for costomers (usually children) saying 'FRESKA! FRESKA!'

this sweet is made of thin layer of waifer sugar, with nuts, sometimes coconut, some times sesmie coverd with another thin layer of waifr and sugar, its very tastey!

u gotta have some if u visit oneday! =)

PP: cropped tighter, adjusted lighting, contrast and resized for TL, reduced saturation to express more of the poverty/simplicity mood here... and finally added frame ..

let me know what u think =)
hope u liked it
thanx 4 passin by
