About
Spotted these women sitting on a roadside souvenir store in their native attire. I didn't want the usual look & smile shot, instead I was after an unguarded moment of them just being themselves. So I improvised by moving my head away from the viewfinder & as soon as I did two of them dropped their guard except for one. She never took her eyes off me but the resulting image makes it appear she's in her own little world.
great capture of these elderly woman of the mountain province, I posted a photo of the parade from the different region and they are asking me if that is the real costume.. maybe I should direct them here to see the original. I like the lighting and exposure, there is enough detail seen in the shadow area. nice shot kabayan...
