Market woman, Paute, Ecuador, 2011

Paute is known for its vast Sunday market, serving an Andean valley about an hour out of Cuenca. This woman, wearing a traditional Ecuadorian Panama hat, is giving me a critical eye. Her red scarf charges the picture with energy. She brings baskets of fresh vegetables to sell at this market and probably has been doing it for a very long time.

Yes, Iris -- we photographers have often been on the receiving end of such looks as this. And we can hardly blame for doing so.
