Bundi District, Rajastan, India

The Story Is In Her Face

Bundi District in Rajastan, India is full of villages where people still seem to live in a different time. Their dwellings are mud houses, they wear traditional outfits, and go about their lives much as their ancestors did. The woman was a visually fascinating character.

Using a 50mm lens on a cropped sensor camera was enough to have her face fill the frame and make it the main feature of the photograph. The story is in her face. The wrinkles were like words. They were telling of the kind of harsh conditions she lived in. I wanted to emphasize this as much as possible, so I used a reflector to help me achieve this aim.*
