Those lovely ladies are singers in shadow puppet performance. We call them sinden or pesinden. They sing all night long since the performance usually starts at 7pm and will be ended at around 5am in the morning.

The one wearing jasmine arrangement on her hair is the primadona, and she’s the youngest among them.

    If they sing as well as they look, it must be beautiful.

    Great photo. They look a bit tired. 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. is a LONG time! :)

    I like the way you captured this moment close up … Eksrepsi dan kecantikannya jadi kelihatan hidup.

    Salam.
