For the photo challenge over at In a Yellow House, I am entering one of my favorite photos of all time. It’s a shot of an old woman smoking a cigar on the temple grounds. This was taken on my trip to Burma in 2001 –back when I still used a film camera. The original is in color, but I’ve edited in the sepia tones using Photoshop for this entry. To see the original in color and see other wonderful faces of Burma, please click here.
Do head on over to In a Yellow House and check out all the awesome sepia entries.

The sepia tone takes away all distractions.
As before - I love this shot! And it's works so well in Sepia. Good job.
Excellent work! Reminds me of one of my hubby's shots from his high school photo club days: a macro of the lined face of his maid's 80-year old Pathan (tribe at the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan) father...
Amazing photo. Really great use of a sepia conversion!
Wow - absolutely incredible shot. I wish I could find my old film photos. I'm so inspired by this. Great work.
