Timorese mother and daughter who helps out with the family income by selling home grown vegetables and fruits to evening hikers/walkers near where I live. The tub on her head were the unsold vegetables and fruits for the day as she was walking home.

The bright smile on the young woman's face makes this image...

You elicited a great reaction from both subjects, Steven. The younger one seems a bit perplexed, and that is fine. I wonder why you have left so much room on the right. I see that Tawau is in Malaysia.
I visited Melaka twice (1751.76 kilometers away from you), when our son worked there for two years.

Very nice image Steven. I like the expression of the woman. The bokeh adds to the composition

Great street photo. The smile on the woman's face is magnificent and the look on the child's face tells a story I recon.
Cheers Ole

Very nice shot, Steven. My DIL is a Chinese/Malaysian from Johor but she lives in Melbourne, Australia with my son and grandchild. I agree with Ole about the child's expression making this shot. I like the mother's fun attitude.

Sorry for the late reply.

Jim, I really have no idea why I left so much room on the right
Melaka is a nice place to visit for any history buff. Not sure if you tried their food that is uniquely theirs.

Izzie, thank you. your reference Chinese/Malaysian ... tells me you are either very familiar with Asia or Asian

[IzzieK]

Yes. I am of mixed Asian descent. I thought everyone here knows by now.

Another moment perfectly captured Steven. I'm fine with the comp but it matters not anyway. It's the body language that makes this.

Only if the person has been reading all the posts from time began ... I have not been active here
