No restrictions.

Additional rules:

For this Challenge, the people should make up > 15% of the shot area.
There's no restriction on the Capture date, but new shot entries would be encouraged.
Please try not to have photos which have been entered in other DPReview challenges, lets keep it fresh.
If you have more than one shot, please differ your subject and composition substantially. The shots must look as if they come from a different photographer.
Preferably the shot should show face, but this is not a must.
No animals please, unless they are part of what's on sale.
I'm a bit flexible on the definition of roadside - as long as it's not indoors.
No offensive post please
No politically statement please, this is a photochallenge.
Complaints after the results are out will not be entertained.
