A brilliant capture Rags, perfect b&w with it's antique feel, the combination of today and yesteryear is wonderful.

The b&w, and period garb, as friends above have observed, is truly lovely, dear Kanyi. I find it so evocative of times past. Like Mary, I do love the juxtaposition of modern, with the lovely lady captured in action there, and historical in this one. Beautiful capture.
