Striking Yellow

Posted on 18 Mar ’12 by Jamie in gallery, portrait - 95 Comments

I met this woman in Anja (Gujarat, India) and was just taken with her striking beauty. She was carrying a baby and was happy to be photographed but she held this certain ‘mystique’ about her. She’s not obviously pretty but in her yellow sari and almond eyes she stood out amongst the crowd.

    You are right, +Janice La Mere Hackney. There's something about her that I can't resist returning to. Don't worry, my wife agrees!

    She looks like one of the "stars without makeup" shots. :)

    May I share this with our theme, Women of a Certain Age?

    You don’t have the right to judge or tell people shes “not pretty”. Your simply judging her, you fucking moran.

      I thought I’d let this one through to show you the kind of shit people write. I tried looking up the word ‘moran’ but could only find references to towns in Assam or congressmen. John Smit (if that is your real name), read the text properly: no one said the woman is not pretty. I can’t believe people still use the anonymity of the internet to be abusive to people they don’t know. I feel I’m back on youtube reading the rant of a pre-pubescent 13 year old.
