ALL 2012 National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest – in HIGH RESOLUTION. Part 4: “Travel Portraits”, Weeks 7-14 (67 Photos)

“Elisabeth's gaze”. I made this portrait of Elisabeth Malgas at a local market in Soweto, Johannesburg. She had the most beautiful eyes I ever saw which resembled her personality. I passed the stand where she sold fruit a few times and after passing a 3rd time just right before it became embarrassing I asked her if I could make a picture of her. She didn't know what I was talking about because she only spoke the Xhosa language. A man who saw me making ridiculous hand gestures helped me out with the translation and after a bit explaining she happily agreed.
