Rob > A minority woman sells banana flowers to the local tourist restaurants as decoration. Unbeknownst to me at the time, the lens I was using at this point in my trip was glitching out on me. Thus, this shot has a fuzzy 'film' on it and is very soft. Too bad too as it's one of my faves, otherwise. Location: Sapa, Vietnam Lens used: 24-105mm f4.0 IS
Rob > Minority woman with a dragonfly on her shoulder. Location: Unknown village, northern Vietnam Lens used: 24-105mm f4.0 IS
Rob > Woman weaving a mat. Location: Ambrym island, Vanuatu Lens used: 70-200mm f2.8 IS
Rob > I stopped this old woman along the side of the road and pantomimed my interest in taking a photograph of her. She obliged and thus gave me my needed foreground element to what I thought was an attractive view out over the Bản Giốc river. Note the working old-fashioned waterwheels on the river supplying water to the brilliant green rice paddies behind. Location: Bản Giốc region, Northeastern Vietnam Lens used: 24-105mm f4.0 IS
Rob > A peasant woman cooks lunch on the ghats in the baking-hot mid-day heat. Location: Varanasi, India Lens used: 24-105mm f4.0 IS
Rob > This beggar woman was crawling around the train station platform asking for change. Before someone goes to India for the first time, I strongly suggest they settle with themselves the issue of whether or not to give money to beggars. Believe me, it'll come up a lot and sometimes it's really really hard not to empathize with the person begging - I still remember the young girl I saw in Kashmir on my first Indian trip with the (healed) 2nd degree burns over her face begging with me through my taxi window. This woman wasn't nearly so hard to refuse as that girl. Still, I gave her a couple coins. But not because she was begging, but rather for her letting me take her picture.

Rob > A woman crawls around a train station platform, begging. Though not a well focused or sharp photograph, I like the 'glimpse of real life'-aspect of it, especially the blurred passerby ignoring the beggar woman as she scopes out possible donors. Location: Varanasi, India Lens used: 24-105mm f4.0 IS
Rob > Women walk down the side of the road after collecting firewood. Scavenging firewood in this way is a major contributing factor to deforestation all across the world. Taken while sticking my head out the just-big-enough sliding window in my speeding, bouncy sleeping bus berth. Location: Rajasthan, India Lens used: 28-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS
Rob > Eh, sonny? Location: Inle Lake, Myanmar Lens used: 24-105mm f4.0 IS
A minority woman sells banana flowers to the local tourist restaurants as decoration.

Unbeknownst to me at the time, the lens I was using at this point in my trip was glitching out on me. Thus, this shot has a fuzzy 'film' on it and is very soft. Too bad too as it's one of my faves, otherwise.
