Quite essentially a Spitian!
Posted by Sriram (Chennai, India) on 3 November 2009 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.
Met this lady at the Kibber village which is one of highest villages in the world! We offered to drop her to the Kazaa town nearby.
Do check out some of the themes that I have worked on in the past, esplly:

The long nose starting in the middle of her forehead shows her intelligence and her face reflects her beauty of her childhood. Good shot.

An excellent portrait with a perfect sharpness. A great rendering of the texture of the wrinkled skin. Far from the overrated portraits of our fashion magasines where everythink is touched up...

Hi, Sriram, your blog is fantastic. this lady is beautiful. I too visited ladakh. and got similar model for foto but it is not that impresive. But in this pic, we can count the wrinkles on her face to count the years of her age. Also, I thank you for your comments on my fotos.
