Description
A long necked woman is shown as a portrait in Thailand. I must admit that I had some pre-conceived ideas about the subject of Long-necked women. Any images that I had previously seen did nothing to dispel my bias on the subject. Once I entered the village I was astounded how beautiful these women were. I did not expect this... These women would no doubt be beautiful without the neck alterations but I admit that they are unique and interesting. All of the girls and women I photographed were gracious with their smiles and their wonderful clear skin and eyes. An interesting cultural event for me and one I am pleased that I had an opportunity in Thailand to witness and photograph.

Bravo Bob. You managed to get this amazing expression , which i think is rare in this village, where they look quite sad, while exposing their custom to tourists.

Hi Nili...Yes, the women seemed happy enough to smile etc once they were comfortable with me photographing them. I found them very beautiful and charming and I guess they relaxed as a result...Thank you so much for your compliment on my image...Cheers Bob
