Salty, by Alejandra Sierra

I love the idea of looking and appreciating daily life objects with a different perspective. Thats what I tried to do with this photo. Taken at the streets of New York where pretzels are the most common snacks, I tried to give it a closer, more intimate approach, a macro view.
