This young girl is from Mumbai, also known as Bombay, India, the fourth most populated city in the world at 20.5 million.
I'm embarking on a series of portraits based on the work of the superb photographer Steve Evans. (Steve generously allows adaptations and distributions of his work). There are so many disarming faces to choose from in his Flickr photostream that it was hard to know where to begin, but this young girl's slightly questioning smile really drew me in. Here is the original:
Taryn, BEAUTiful! BTW, you left out the bindi on the clearly Hindu girl's forehead. Why?
ReplyDeleteThanks Anonymous- I have added the bindi. I absent-mindedly and regretfully simply forgot it!
