Hi, Lokisb! I like this candid picture for many reasons : the subjects are in their elements because they dont know they are being watched and clicked. Catching that moment is the spirit of the picture and you have done it exceedingly well. Maybe the ladies are mother and daughter. The non-challant, some what impatient expression is evident, perhaps she was in a que and waiting for her turn to use public washroom. The younger lady has suspicion or curiosity on her face and wondering why the previous person is taking so much time. The placement of the objects off centre in the frame goes well with the senior lady looking to her left, the empty space being explored by her. Details and colours of their dress have been captured very well. Clenliness of floor and neglected wall with patches of algae, holes etc. make a most apt background for the class of the subjects. Keep growing and be happy. Guruzone, India

As it should be...

The girl on the right is beautiful, without all the extra western add-ons that we think one needs to BE beautiful. And the contrasts of the ladies' detailed patterned clothing against a wall that looks like it's seen the very beginning of time is marvelous.
