Room for all 1997-2003

I chose this photograph, 'Room for all' because it shows female hospitality and generosity in it's best form. There is room for everyone in Pala's house. She is a beautiful, dignified woman and welcomes every guest . I invited myself to her house to take her picture and when I left she gave me the wrapped present seen in the photo. In an attempt to give more an impression of what is happening I chose to use larger pixels to unsharpen the picture. Thus removing the focus from the photograph to an atmosphere people are welcome into.
