Hello Caleb,
Another fine portrait with a proud look and fantastic dress, always portraying the people together with their daily business, a fantastic series...
I often wondered what these people dressed with so much tradition and taste must think when they see us Westerners in our shaky travel outfit.
Regards,
Paul

Hi Caleb

I like this one. No smile, no seduction, but velvet scrutinizing eyes... a brutal sensation to be in the core of the life, with the necessity of water. The colors are excellent, with this wall of which texture is eye-catching, and which provides an intense contrast with the clothes.
Bravo.
Regards
Marine

Hi Caleb!
Not as "catchy" perhaps because of the subdued colors, but a classic! The urns make a splendid part of the photo. The details of the women's clothing and her tattoos are wonderful, and beautifully clear. The simple wall works great. Fine work, cheers,
Steve
