Looking Good Photo

Photographer’s Note

After two days of trekking in the steep mountains of northeast Thailand we stopped at Palong village to spend the night. This tribe's women are big on belts as you can see. I found them very stylish for the mountain tribes. They are originally from Burma and are as vibrant as their outfits.

Hope you like this!

Thanks to flydragon for providing the village name. I'd forgotten.

PP: sharpened and framed.
