Ramadan Kareem to all our Muslim friends

I see her from time to time at the old city, returning from the Friday prayer at the Haram el Sharif (Temple Mountain). She always walks slowly with two other old women. Two of the three have traditional face tattoos, a theme that attracts me for a long time. Like many others, she does not seem very pleased from me and my cam. I hope I can be forgiven for taking her photo.

 

Let's hope Ramadan will be denoted in a peaceful, respectful, merciful way…

 

Each time I take a photo of an old Palestinian woman with a face tattoo, I ask myself: Is it the last photo of this sort I take? As you hardly see them anymore, and they are not becoming younger with time...
