[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
One of the attractions of the Flower H'Mong weekly market in Bac Ha is the potent corn spirit brought from the villages and bartered by the H'mong ladies. This crystal-clear juice can top one hundred proof.

Hi Caleb
Very good portrait and good composition.
Well done
TFS/Regards

I met those Flowe Hmong ladies selling moonshine too in a deucedly HOT little place down in the valley below Sapa. Over 40 degrees C, easy!
Nice environmental portrait - the 24-70 held up really well in the gloom here, details are clearly visible. Impeccably composed - the ting you do so well, C.
best,
Francis

One hundred proof, eh. I bet it helps with creative photography. Another winner of a composition, Caleb. Great colors, as usual. Looks a wee bit underexposed on my Mac.
Best,
Hakan

hi caleb

i really like the juxtaposition of the woman and her environment. her costume is awesome. bold colours, clean and well presented. the opposite could be said for her surroundings. your image highlights that so very well. great work!

tomorrow!

Une super image !
Y a qu'un petit détail qui détourne le regard inutilement je trouve, c'est ce petit bout de papier de rien du tout.
Bon, je vais pas faire un WS pour le supprimer lolll.

A great picture !
But there's that small detail which diverts the eye pointlessly I think, it's this small scrap of paper.
Well, I will not make a WS to remove it, lolll

TFS
