When words become unclear, camera gets the best capture
Once you have eye contact, it doesn’t take much to elicit a radiant smile
Camera captures tiny moments in a person's life that reveal greater truths
Photography is not just clicking, its a feeling
It was the people, with a deep gaze, who made me stay longer
You don’t take a photograph. You ask quietly to borrow it
Walking the streets for more colours and traditional fashion
Painted faces in the crowd
Turbans and attires are as colourful as the people of Rajasthan
An old Indian man in a turban draped in traditional Rajasthani fashion
Portrait of a Hindu priest
A face of a hard lived life
A famous face, known to play the flute with his nose
Pushkar, located in the Ajmer city of Rajasthan (north Indian state) is not only known for its religious sites and spellbinding locations but also for its colourful stalls, the decorated camels and its beautiful people.
A visit to the tiny rugged city of Pushkar in Rajasthan led us to capture the colourful lives of the humble and ever smiling people, who live in this desert land. The state is rich in traditions and cultural practices, and overwhelming for the senses in many ways. It surprised us with its captivating sights, intoxicating fragrance of its food and the general rustic aura around.
We witnessed the charm of the countryside, the people and their lifestyle, and made some portraits providing a complete backdrop of their brightly coloured saris, odhnis (strip of cloth); their everyday ornaments; some aged and painted faces in the crowd; men in equally colourful turbans.
People of Rajasthan are well known for their warm and friendly nature and belong to several sub-ethnic groups, with the whole community known as marwaris (from the Marwar region of Rajasthan).
