Black Hmong in Sapa

I was in Sapa recently and it was very cold there. This elderly woman was

sitting at a corner selling her handmade stuffs.She earned my respect

because she don't beg. But when you get closer to her then she will spoke

politely asking you to buy something from her.

Let me know your comments and I really appreciated every bits of your

input. Regards

Beautiful shot! Love the colours , kind regards

Fabulous. I did a quick edit to show a possibility in BW

Thanks, Tony. Black gave a better contrast and a visible character too. But I will retain as it is because of the costume she wear.Different ethnic group their dress patterns and colours are different. This woman belong to the black Hmong tribe. Regards.

Thank you for your comments, dear Andrea.
