wonderfully colourful, imaginative photo, well executed, although you desaturated the surroundings. The idea is good, but I am not sure it is permissible here.
Good luck on TEarth. Best, jancsi

Hi Roshan, I love the B/W colour mix & the overall composition is magnificent, the woman peeking over her shoulder adds a nice touch to the photo & your timing was very good, the colours are so strong & there is excellent light, great shot & TFS, kind regards Wilson. PS welcome to TE.

A powerful entry on TE! Welcome, Roshan!
The colors are striking and the desaturation of the countryside make the clothes shine even more! That's an interesting view on local people in Iran. It's just a pity you didn't write a longer note, because it would be pleasant to know more about these people and their lifestyle. Iran is a very secret country for most of us in the west!
Well done!
Regards
Marine

Hello Roshan
A wonderful first posting on Trekearth. The variety of colours is magnificient and the composition good with one woman turning. I like the partial desaturation. TFS, Marlene

Hello Roshan.
Welcome to TE.
This shot is fantastic. I love the colours of the clothes and the sharpness of the image. You timed this very well to catch the one on the right looking back. I would not expect a group of people shot from behind to be so interesting, but the colours and that one face make this a winner.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Roshan and Welcome on YOU - Here is a very beautiful entrance on this site - more still, a masterful entrance - It is excellent -We would like to know about it a little more about the life of these women... For example here they were in clothes of ceremony? A quite small supplementary note would be welcome - thank you - Very good continuation among us- Regards-

Salam Roshan. Stunning colours made even more vivid by the bleached background. it is nice that we can see a glimpse of a face of at least one of the women. Are these ladies related to the Kurds, Azeris or Persians? Anyway, they look like spring flowers in a field. Is their name "Those who love the Shah" a problem for them in today's Iran? Welcome to TE. Regards. Klaudio.

colorful shot and very well presented. what makes this more captivating is the timely capture of one of the women turning her face back! a nice work, no doubt!
