It is a superb image. How much do the women spend on make-up? It seems that they would need a lot of it. Now, I have to ask this question. Helen was your first covered up like this???? Great image. V.

Attractive eyes behind that veil - it would be interesting to know if women choose how much they veil up. Neat looking wall hanging in the bg V

Glad you are able to photograph women. I especially like the lady in the background and the elegant flow of her robe.

Her eyes suggest a smile beneath the veil. Nice expressions on the two women behind her, too, including the one with a stroller. Very photogenic group! V.
