Woman Keeping Books

Shot in the city of Yangon, Myanmar.

There were many food stalls on the edge of the street. The tables were placed on the street and the chairs were around the tables. If it was not raining, it was comfortable to take a meal in these stalls. It was possible to eat with feeling freedom. Yet the stalls were deserted because it was too early to have lunch at the time of coming here.

In such a setting, a stout woman sat one of the chairs. However, she didn't have lunch there. She had her back turned to the table. Instead of eating, she opened a notebook on the chair and put a calculator beside it.

Seemingly, she was a peddler and was recording the sales of that day. A serious expression was seen on her face. On the other side of her, a man wearing a longyi was having lunch without uttering a word.
