Pow - 2008 week 4

Woman washing mais at the market in Ataco in El Salvador

There was no difficulty in selecting the image of this week even though at the beginning I had a hard time. There where few candidates but in the end after having them all laying on salt for a while this one stood out.

We where at the market in the small village of Consepcion de Ataco trying to find a restroom and some breakfast when I saw the woman washing mais.
As not to disturb her I shot from the hip so one could think that this was a lucky shot but it was not. It took couple of frames to get the shot the way I wanted.
