I was wandering the old quarter of Hanoi, Viet Nam, with a companion, when we came upon this group of flower sellers, standing in the middle of a very busy intersection. The image struck me as one seen all over the world, among working women. What were they speaking of? Family? The boss? Money? Troublesome boyfriends, or husbands? It just seemed to me that it could be a scene of women anywhere.
