Borneo: Gold-Capped Teeth And Elongated Ears



Indonesia. Borneo rain forest. Dyak woman with gold-capped teeth. Vanity in Borneo had a price. This lady was admired for the weight of her earrings, but would have been ridiculed if a broken earlobe had spilled them on the ground.

Join me in Ecuador this year and learn to shoot photos like these.

Indonésie. Bornéo. Femme Dayak aux dents dorées. Dans sa forêt, la vanité avait un prix. Le poids des anneaux de ses oreilles était très admiré. Mais elle aurait été ridiculisée si l’un de ses lobes avait cédé et laissé les anneaux rouler à terre.
