They need ways to make a living and it is good to see her happy dressing up like this for you foreigners.
I'm also intrigued with the family's clothing too.

Hello Hans,
Very colorful costume decked with attractive stripes and beard. From what I have seen, the local tribes from neighboring countries have similarities in local costumes. Greetings! Danilo

Joyfull happy looking picture, Hans.
Kleren maken de Keizer, toch ?
Ze ziet er prachtig uit in die outfit. Zo trots als een Pauw is ze.
Maar als haar huisje zo scheef staat als jouw foto doet vermoeden, had je het althans voor ons wel even recht kunnen zetten, toch ?

Hello Hans !

Interesting composition, with the rich and colorful costume against the modest house & family behind. Poor maybe, but certainly proud and happy family.

Great one for the theme,
Robert

Hi Hans. I like posts from these native areas. It never fails to amaze me the bright happy smiles which come so naturally. The so called developed countries seem to have grown away from simple happiness, in public anyway. Good colours. Sharpness my goal is to achieve one day. TFS. Murray.

Nice Hans, well composed to start with and good natural colours. The light has been well handled and good overall detail. I think the correct terms for a person who doesn't hear or speak these days anyway, is mute.

A lovely colourful photo Hans showing the detail of the traditional costume very well.

Just please allow me a comment regarding "deaf and dumb" - The word "dumb" is often associated with a low intelligence - Are you sure that this woman was "dumb" also? She was probably not able to speak well since she was not fortunate to be exposed to sound when she developed speech but that has nothing to do with her intelligence.

As a deaf (and hopefully not dumb) person I just like to point out that hearing peeps must be careful not to add the "dumb" tag (even in jest) where it is not applicable. I am not saying that you did so here but the perception may be carried over by your comment.

She is probably the clever one to be willing to show off the dress and receive more sympathy in doing so than a hearing person would get and in so doing contributing in a special way to help her family.

I salute you for helping her and her family towards a more comfortable life with your kind donations.

Please forgive if I was way off track here!
Kind regards
