Hi Jorge,
Comment as asked. ;-)

My gut feeling is you missed the magical moment because the main action is
all over!:-(

In other words the lady selling the corn bread is finished with the
transaction and what you missed was ... her looking up, eyes open and in
communication with the lady buying.

It's all over mon ami and in this case you blew the timing of the
interesting action and merely have a wasted piece of film. When you're
shooting in the future here's a few things to keep in
mind...................

LIGHT -- EYES -- ACTION --

If you make them work for you in this order you'll have a 99.9 % success
rate! :-)
regards,
ted
