A bootblack practicing his trade in Trinidad, Cuba. He appears to have a bit of a wry smile on his face as if perhaps he's thinking to himself that whatever his client is saying in the moment is a crock.

Flâner - French for: to stroll, observe surroundings, and savouring the moments without any specific goal
As we walk around whether in the neighborhood or on vacations our eyes are attracted to something and we choose to either ignore it or pick it up and carry it around before discarding.
This image from the late 1980s, predates all digital editing and what is captured, is exactly what was seen in viewfinder - there was no postproduction editing.
This image was done in late 1980s on Polaroid's instant slide film Polapan - a prefect film for beauty and boudoir photography as skin tones were rendered silky.
