Here is one I was sure was going to be a winner: M6 with the 90 or  
135, looking down on the market watching the guy in the foreground go  
through his sales pitch: the deal is almost done when I took this  
image: I focused on the "action", but the stupa in the background is  
therefore out of the range of the DOF. Being white and big, does it  
draw the eye and destroy the image, ie is the out of focus part too  
dominant and distracting?
