Lovely photograph of a Tonle Sap resident. They do work hard to make a living. You have done well with your post-production considering the difficulties with contrast in the light of the lake. We had a wonderful experience on our visit there. One of my favourite places in the world.
Regards
Bernard

Witaj Sothy!
Interesting composition. Curious portrait. I like the light and colors. Framing does not please me ;-).
Nice sunday
Krzysztof

Good one brother. I will give you my 350D whenever I can afford to get 40D. I know you will do a lot better with more choices of lens. You captured her face so well. She looks unhappy. Like Isabela said, I would also buy her bananas so to make her smiling back. Well done bro. Sothy

In fact, I find the lighting effect too aggresive.
I think with more natural post processing you could have got better results.

Yes I wanna buy a few if this will bring a smile on her face...she is so young and so caring with the little one .
In a strange way,the PP work made this image more strong because of the light on the central subject
Have a great weekend
