Harar market girl, a photo from Oromiya, South

Selling produce seems to be a female activity in Ethiopia, particularly in Harar. This girl was selling vegetables in the market in Harar when I interrupted her.

Hello Steve,
It's a fine portrait of this nice looking girl. The photo is well cropped and has a perfect light and sharpness. There seem to be some reflections in her eyes but I couldn't find you. ;-)
Regards,
Gert

Hello Stephen,

This is a lovely portrait.
The expression on the lady's face gives her character.
I love the light on her face, the sort of side light often achieved by portrait painters.
And, look at those eyes, the near one looks like amber!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Stephen

Good crop and the lateral light gives a 3D effect on her face and illulinates her right eye.
Congratulations
