Chewing and elegant!

Photo from scan of print.Thank you in advance for taking the time to

comment.Best regards-Laurent

Nice capture. This young lady seems to have a lot of character.  I like the profile angle and the documentary aspect of your portrait. I find the light on her face and her hat a bit hot. I would consider toning it down a little.  I have worked on your image and came up with a different interpretation not better than yours just different.  Regards - michel

Thank you for looking at this photo and for taking the time to propose an alternative light balance.This picture,as I remember,was shot more around mid-day rather than at optimum light which explains the intensity on the large hat and some of the facial area.In PP of the scan,I tried to maintain the skin tone as close as rendered on the original print and which,as I recollect was pretty faithful to the lady's skin...but that was 15 year ago!

curiosa immagine,sopratutto per noi europei !

Sorry for the delay in responding to your comment;I had omitted to activate the "alert" on this photo.This is effectively an uncommon custom for both europeans and us,north americans and my understanding is that in Indonesia,it is tolerated as an acquired right only to a certain portion of the older generation  and is prohibited to the rest of the population.
