Hi Vishakha.
I like your subject and the note. However, IMO, to improve the feeling that she has to walk miles and miles, the perspective could have been different. I mean the right side of the picture is useless. But on the left (the direction she's going) you could have put more perspective by changing a bit your POF.
Have a nice day.

Interesting subject. I think that the photo would have been different if she had already collected the water and was returning to her village. It makes me think how lucky i am to turn on a tap when i like and to have pure water flowing from it. TFS

How does the subject manage to carry all the recipient when they are full ?
I would like to see this picture in colour just to see the clothing of the women which is usually very colourfull.
