Photographer’s Note
Following on my last post of the Beautiful Candle Keeper, I am presenting another truly beautiful woman. This girl was running a small stand at the Commercial Fishing docks just outside of General Santos City. She was one of many semi-permanent business people there. Most were selling soups, noodles or other such ready to eat foods, but she had a small convenience store. Being a vendor, I would have taken her photo anyways, but being a beautiful vendor such as she is; I took a few ;)

nice compo. I like those little shops where they sell incredible things you can't even recognize. she's pretty and the hat she's wearing makes her look like a nun.

You've taken a great picture of a common site in the Philippines (small stores that sell a variety of goods). It's interesting to see all the little details / goods sold. And the pretty young girl adds beauty to an already interesting picture.

Hi Darren,
Merci pour ton commentaire qui me donne l'occasion de visiter ta galerie et de découvrir d'excellents clichés.
Celui-ci est tout à fait remarquable. La composition avec un cadrage serré sur le visage de cette belle femme et des articles de son commerce est réussie.
Beau travail
Thank you for your comment on my last post which gives me the opportunity to visit your gallery and to discover excellent photos.
This one is really remarkable. The composition with a framing tightened on the face of this beautiful woman and the articles of her trade is successful.
Well done
Jean-Luc

You're right, Darren. She is just beautiful...I am transfixed. This kind of face would look stunning without even trying, as you clearly proved with this rather "ordinary" picture of a shop vender, err, just vending. She carries the entire picture.
