A nice shot full of contrasts...and damn, I wish my Chinese was better,
so I could understand the writing on the wall.

Hello Caleb!

this is an excellent daily life scene, a beautiful portrait even if we can't see the face! Flawless composition and framing, excellent light managment, I really like the warm tones of the picture. Impressive quality and overall definition! I just wish that there was a note, (I mean more than 5 words), after all the purpose of TE is supposed to be "Learning about the world through photography".

Best regards,
Hercules

Hello Caleb,

Excellent composition, fabulous colors. The woman, her face completely covered, is wearing high heeled shoes. The Uighurs are Turkic people, but I guess they have to learn to speak and write Chinese, as the lettering on the wall suggests. It's an interesting combination of settings. A very large aperture (f/3.2) an a very high shutter speed.

Warm regards,

Bulent

hello Caleb,
I love this one! You have captured suvh an intersting scene. I wish I understood more about the woman and her culture. A covered head in China, why so? I like how you have captured her groping around inher bag for something that she obviuosly couldn't see beacuse of her head covering. And those shoes, so sexy and surely they must turn on the men who see her passing by? Her face and body can't be seen but the shoes must stir the imagination. :D
