Hope, a photo from Orissa, Est

Photographer's Note

It's tribal girl in a small village in Jeypore district. I was the first foreigner that people remember coming to their village.

I put this picture with a special dedication for one person, that fortunatelly didn't leave us for ever. I hope this person will never try it again.

Antoni, i am short of words for this one. just i can say, this is a favorite of mine.
absolutely gorgeous take, with brilliant looks from this kid. she has given a look of astonishment and wonder for you. light is perfect and the contrasts look so fine, touched with the lovely bits of colors.
one can use this for a demo of what DOF should be like.
thanks, Arnab

very sweet, good light. why you stopped giving technical details, at least what kind of lens and settings you used?

Beautiful gaze she provides, with a lot of curiosity and innocence.
Superbe picture Antoni.

The light is outstanding. A wonderful look in the girl's eyes. The composition and deatils such as the flowers, hair and bangles are great but the light and the eyes are what make it so special.

i think this is one of the most beautifull portraits i´ve never seen. incredible colours and feelings inside this photo.
No more critique is necessary. Well done, now i´m reviewing your work, no doubt, you are a master of portrait.
David.
