Green Sari


I wanted to add this to my summer project photographs. It was taken at an Indian festival at Marymoore. The woman in the Sari knew that I was photographing her group from a short distance away as she was waiting to perform. I kept waiting for the sun to hit her face but wanted the shadows to remain on her gown and all around her. I really like this photo and hope that you do also.

The colors are vibrant while her skin tones are delicate. You've caught her in repose. I looked again at your dancing woman in the pleated blue sari. This photo is more personal because we can see her expression.

I like this photo. I like the yellow background also. It frames her. I wonder how the mood would change if the background were dark--not better but different.
