I never knew it would be so stressful to hang a DSLR around my neck while making my way through the only market in Ifakara.

Everyone was staring and some were shouting from a distance, "NO FOTO!". I can't shoot from eye level so I pretended to adjust something and shot from waist level and caught this lady walking through.

This is the only shot I got and I never got another shot of the market ever.

    thanks for puting this shot in. we all too often see a first world bias in whats submitted, we forget how the other eighty percent live

    a very beautiful (and not to mention lucky!) shot. you captured the emotion well and the colors and life came out wonderfully. great job.
