What to say to this post, Murat? Great picture, obviously, wonderful colours, etc...but it's the confrontational quality of the shot which is so striking. I do not like what I see, but it is beautiful. Tricked by photography...
My hat goes off for this provoking shot. Thanks for sharing it.

hello Murat,
like Benny, I find it difficult to write a meaningful comment to this photo. technically it is perfect, crips and sharp details, clean and vibrant colours. the contrast between the blood-red wall and cool blue of the burka is striking, and I particularly like the tiny spot of red on the cloth, like a reflection from the wall.
but I keep thinking about the person under the cloth. how does she feel? does it feel safe to hide your face and your expression? or, on the contrary, does it feel like a prison? thanks for this thought-provoking photo.
best,
Kristine
