  1. This photo is absolutely beautiful – light, color, composition, everything!

  2. Very fine, Mimo. How much time were you able to spend with her, and how much were you able to communicate?

  3. Such beautiful work. The photos in this series are amazing! Not that it really matters, but do you have any idea how old some of these women actually are?

  4. So beautiful Mimo.. can’t help noticing the flies on her shoulder. The natural light ( if it is) is perfect for this subject. This photo proves why the saying “the eyes are the windows to the soul” is so accurate.

  5. I could “listen” to this woman for hours. Visually striking. Beautiful portrait.
