Photographer's Note
This photo was taken in a Duong Lam village. Located 40km from the capital Hanoi, Duong Lam village can be reached by car after only one hour.
A visit to Duong Lam village is a trip to trace back the origin of Vietnam's culture and Vietnam's traditions. This is also the great chance explore architecture of ancient houses which has been preserved for many centuries. It is estimated that there are about 300 ancient houses in Duong Lam village, 50 of which have the age of over 300 years old while the rest were already 200 years old. According to people in the village, there are three reasons that make the number of ancient house that high.
She's a poor little gilr, living in a ancient house have the age of over 300 years old. I love her eyes and her purse one's lips.
Thank for comments.

A lovely potrait with nice soft light. She has a lovely face and the picture is nicely composed.The silplicity of the composition is very dramatic.

what metering mode did you used for this shot. It's lovely portrait of this little girl. From her face I can see that her life is not very smooth.

It is always great to see kids' eyes..especially in South east Asia. I just can't guess what she was thinking at that moment, she looks being in a deep thought.
