This picture is awesome. Truly amazing artwork. The details of The Kara women hands, and wrinkles displays the hard work she does daily.

This picture is wonderful. It tells a story of The Kara women without seeing anything else except the beautiful, hard working, wrinkled arms and hands. Pictures like this is inspiring to any photographer.
