Speaking lines, a photo from Rift Valley, West

Photographer's Note

Massai Woman.... She was selling off some souvenirs just near the village we have visited... and was very tough when it came to bargaining (although bargaining is very common in Kenya)... business lady of the village!!
***
Although the Massai tribes are wearing very colourful clothes and accessories, I opted for B&W fot this particular portrait (sepia filter applied)

Hola Irina,
The subject of this portrait is excellent, with a lot of character. However, if my eyesight doesn’t fool me, I think the focus is on the earrings instead of the eyes (something I learnt here in TE: the eyes must always be on focus, sharp).
You are a good photographer, so I can't leave the two smiles just so easily. Sorry for the not so positive critique today.
cheers
Jorge
