thanks for sharing this picture, but I am not sure whether you wanted to highlight the long neck, or the smile and expression or you wanted to show the colorful cloths in the shop. I feel the main highlight could have been the long neck, as its quite rare phenomena to enhance that you could have taken a vertical frame and avoided any distracting elements like colorful clothes.

Allessandro: something about your angled compo here even adds to the illusion that her neck is even longer. Great complementary silks hanging here as background as well. shall return. c

Thanks for sharing this wonderful capture. I am strongly of the view that Thai government should educate this tribe not to go for this tradition of elongating necks. This sure must be very painful. But the Thai government is instead, kind of protecting this tribe and encouraging them indirectly to follow this ritual in the name of Tourism. This is clearly a human right violation. Imagine how painful and uncomfortable it must be for that lady.
So far as your picture is concerned, it is just fantastic. It does convey the message that I am trying to say here.
