Beautiful colours great composition and it all shows off these girls national dress really well.In addition the haughty pose and gtreat beauty of the girl in the middle adds a real touch of class to this image.

The girl in the middle is definitely not happy and please at all with just about anything. So in contrast with her colorful decorations on the outfit. Her expression is anything but nice, and spoil your well exposed and focused shot Zul.She shouldn't be there or wearing that costume in the first place.
