I Heart Faces: Slice of Life

This week's challenge on I Heart Faces is Slice of Life. I immediately knew I wanted my picture to portray a slice of life in Moldova, and this picture is one of my all-time favorites. I took this at the market here in Orhei, and I was just so impressed by how this lady got all gussied up every day with her pearls and fancy updo to go to the market and sell cuts of raw meat.


I edited it with CoffeeShop Simply Vintage, and I just love everything about it. So, here you go, I Heart Faces, this is a very common slice of everyday life in Moldova!
