OK, Three Times a Lady for this last of my series of pretty Bidayuh girls (from left, Ms Corina, Charmaine, Charlene) from Kampung Bunan Gega during Gawai Festival 2008, and this one shows all three girls smiling sweetly to the camera, no hidden shyness for Charmaine.

I know, I do not like the flags above the heads too. Just that the girls are so active moving about, I would not wish to miss this shot, so the flags cannot beat the smiles. The last time I saw the girls was Oct2007 and they are growing up beautifully in the village. Bidayuh is one of native ethnic Sarawak people living mostly inland near mountains and streams, hardworking in the hilly farmland, hunting and fishing. If you visit Sarawak, they are one of your must-see agenda.

Hi Bill,

The flags don't bother me at all. It tells the world where the photo is taken IMO. It's nice to be able to see Charmaine's face clearly and smiling too!!
