Yellow and Grey, by Ryszard Wierzbicki

On the way to Luang Prabang, I met two sisters in the village by the road when they were playing outside the house. They were wearing yellow and grey colored dresses. It was a great occasion to get to know each other with their parents and have a permission of taking several pictures in exchange for some sweets.
