I love people watching. When you’re in a foreign country its particularly intriguing to wonder what kind of lives people lead. This woman I saw outside of Arequipa, Peru at an outdoor market. I wondered what kind of home she lived in, whether she has family, whether she earns her income by knitting, what she thought of those funny gringos with all of their cameras. You just wonder.
The women in the picture seems totally unaware that you’re photographing her. She appears to be totally engrossed in whatever she’s up to. The picture tells a great story!
