Archaic Beauty: A Kosovar Wedding in the Village of Donje Ljubinje

These pictures have been shown around the blogsphere quite a while but still I feel I have to share them - they look like from a fairy tale or another world.

Bosnian bride Senita Demirovic has her face painted on her wedding day for a traditional ceremony in the village of Donje Ljubinje, Kosovo.

Donje Ljubinje is situated in the Shar mountains that form the border between Kosovo and 

Macedonia. The inhabitants call themselves 'Torbesh'.
