I'm living in Korea right now and one thing that is prevalent here is the amount of older people you see out in everyday life.
The term ajumma means married woman but usually refers to older women about grandmother age. With only four months in Korea under my belt I'm confident that these ajummas, with there wisdom and sheer determination, are the back bone of Korean society.
Tell me what you think of this portrait I snapped of an ajumma who insisted I take her picture after watching me shoot some pictures of my friend near where she was sitting.

    Nice idea.
    I find the fence a distraction, particularly with so much of it on the lhs.
    Have you tried a different crop? (square?)
    Also Have you tried b&w, with such great lines I think it may work better than colour.
