The ao dai is the traditional dress of Vietnam and this high school girl wore it beautifully. The flowing motion of the pant and the back of the dress as she rode to school.

This is an elegant photo. The feeling of motion, her graceful attire, the gray and black tones all make for an astounding photo. It was worth the trip for this photo alone.

I like the POV. You have to rely upon her body language to tell the story since you can't see her face, and her body language suggests so many possibilities (I think the girl is late for an important function).

Great shot. I wonder how it would look in B&W. One of my strongest memories of Vietnam is of the schoolgirls gliding the streets in their ao dai's.
