I took this picture in Oaxaca 2009

Maggie said...: This is a wonderful, moving photo! This woman looks so serene, yet you can see she is tired, maybe from a lifetime of hard work. She is such a good representation of the Mexican woman. I hope she has a large family with many grandchildren!; October 9, 2010 at 4:18 AM
Healing Woman said...: I was there too..pronounced "Whoa-ha-ka" a few years ago. The women who begged on the street touched my heart. I sculpted several once I got home. How lucky we are and how rich we are in comparison. They may be happy though, in ways that we don't understand.; October 10, 2010 at 5:23 AM
Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...: What a touching photo. Her expression tells all. The worn wood above her head could be interpreted as a halo.; October 10, 2010 at 8:15 AM
