In the picture of the Rajasthan women, they are working for money and trying to make a living. When I look at the picture, my first impression is that these women are slaves and don't have any right or reason to be doing that kind of labor. Then my second impression, I really get to looking at the picture and see the way they hold themselves and the tools. They look strong and committed to what they are doing.
At first when I look at the picture, I think that they are being treated unfair. They have these very nice colorful dresses on that don't look like they need to get dirty. So the dresses make you think that these women are very wealthy and do not normally do this kind of work. Then I conclude that they are being forced to work.
My second thought on the picture is that these women know what they have to do to make a living. When they are working, they are holding the axe strong and to me the women look powerful. When I actually really looked at the picture, I felt a since of determination and dedication.
Below the picture, there is a small paragraph describing the picture. It says that the women turn to digging a reservoir because during the dry season they can not herd as much. When I read that, that really made up my mind to say that the women know that they have to work to make money, so digging is the only job to do and they are determined to do the job. That little paragraph told me that the Rajasthan women are strong and hard working.
Looking at this picture opened my eyes to see that women in other countries do not have the luxuries we do in the United States, but the women in other countries are dedicated to hard work and that makes them stronger women.
