19 June 2014 - Old Woman Refusing To Pose
This old lady was running a vegetable stall at the market. It was a gift of a competition winning opportunity to capture her fascinating image, her life history etched into those age-lines. It wasn't to be; we waited and waited but at no point did she look up. She took an age to pull together a bag of picante peppers, and after ten minutes we left empty handed as she still fiddled with her brass tray and some change, constantly looking down as she did so. I think she knew what we wanted, and inside she was laughing, laughing at our pathetic attempts to connect with her world, a world of which really, we knew absolutely nothing.
