Description
This wonderful and very elegant Swazi lady was the only one who really allowed me to photograph her while we were in Swaziland two weekends ago. She was tending a shop in one of the more "upper end" craft markets! The wrap she is wearing is very Swazi traditional and is basically just a sarong tied on one shoulder. I just love the strong colors.
Thank you for popping in and for your very valued comments and favs on my zebra upload of last night!
Take care and have a super weekend!
Hugs, Carin xx

Great Caesar's Ghost! Strong colors is an understatement, Carin. They virtually bowled me over when I opened this page! A plethora of designs, geometric patterns and the previously mentioned colors to greet the eye in this amazing foto!
Stupendous capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The colors are amazing; but I'm curious what the black and white pattern is around the borders of her wrap...looks like spaceships? I'm thinking it must be something a little more homegrown, like shields or seedpods or something. But who knows? She seems pretty comfortable with having her portrait taken, and you've done a marvelous job!
This is a great shot. I love how bright and lively the colors are in the surround area of the shot.
Mmmmm... Macadamia nuts. Beautiful colors!
Fantastic shot! That is a gorgeous wrap!
Very colorful attire....
