Gypsy Queen Beggar, a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

Quel endroit plus stratégique que Pushkar pendant sa célčbre foire aux chameaux pour y faire admirer ses splendides yeux verts en échange de quelque menue monnaie ....??!!

Any place more strategic than Pushkar during its world-famous camel fair to take advantage of splendid green eyes for a couple of rupies ...!!???

Bonjour Patrick. Stunning eyes and a vibrant personality also. I had a look at your images from India. You obviously love the place and what I like about your photos is the understatement- like L'autobus and Ombres. Then there is also poetry in a work like Ballet. I will visit again, bien sur. Amities. Klaudio.

Salut Patriock
Cette femme est de toute beauté. Rien ŕ voir avec celle publiée par Gilou ! L'allure de cette dame et la faible profondeur de champ contribuent a donner un parfait portrait. Fera tu mieux avec un D700 ?

Hello Patrick. A indeed masterful Portrait. The intensive and direct view of the woman is impressing. She works very self-confidently. Compliment for this photo. Best regards, Wolfgang.

zmey (7335) 2008-12-12 7:47

that's some BEGGAR you've found yourself Patrick. queen: maybe, but beggar? look at that shiny on her lips, the outfit, the jewelry. in western world she could pass for a fashion queen of sorts ;)) anyway, a wonderful encounter and good capture. the brigth background seems distracting though.

warm regards,
kristaps

Salut Patrick!

Tu as réussi un portrait plein d'émotion. Cette femme est belle, avec ses traits harmonieux, ses yeux clairs, et la petite mčche mutine qui tombe sur ses pommettes saillantes, mais c'est surtout le mouvement des lčvres que je trouve émouvant, dans ce sourire un peu retenu, cette sensualité pas forcément si consciente qu'il n'y paraît... elle semble presque ingénue, cette beauté fatale! Mais... est-ce bien une femme? Les sourcils n'ont-ils été rasés puis re-dessinés? Et que dire de l'ombre qui court au-dessus de la lčvre supérieure? Ou de cette petite blessure au menton qui pourrait dater du dernier rasage? J'ai un doute soudain...

Amicalement
Marine

Wow, Patrick,
what a fabulous portrait! Sensational rich color, exquisite detail, perfectly composed. You got a marvelous catchlight in those astonishing eyes, too. This is wonderful! Many thanks and kindest wishes,
Shelly

Hi Patrick!
Good portrait of this beaty.It`s a good exposure with fine details to view at her skin.I like too the tight raming and the contrast with the overexposed background.In three weeks I`ll be in India/Kerala for one month and I hope I can manage some good portraits like this one.
Regards;leo

The portrait is excellent. Very incisive and fine. Nice eys, nice smile and fine dressing. Even from the thumbnail ipnotise you! But honestly I have some reserve for those couple of rupies... (:-
Well done,
Donato

Hello Patrick, A couple of Rupees well spent, congratulation, you have been rewarded by a beautiful smile & very interesting green eyes, the colour does appear a little bit strange but I believe that it is not uncommon in some parts of India/Pakistan.
A lovely & interesting portrait, captured in excellent colour & detail.
Thank you
Santo

Hello Patrick,
Wow....what a beautiful and captivating portrait. You managed to capture her soul by the looks of her expression....definitely woth a few rupees. The blurred background creates good emphasis onto her, and her eyes are the major point of focus, as it should be. Her coloured dress and jewellery adds additional interest to the image. Very well done.
Cheers Grant

Hello Patrick,
quel magnifique portrait.
L'arričre plan est superbe, clair, fondu et la mise au point, un peu sur le devant laisse l'épaule arričre se fondre également. Quelle maîtrise.
Une photo exceptionnelle ŕ mes yeux.
Bravo!

I saw this photo and was directed here! This is a better portrait, could it be the same woman? A remarkable face and a remarkable photo all the same!
Kind regards

Bonjour Patrick
Comment ai-je pu la manquer?
Ses yeux sont envoutants et son regard perçant. on peut ŕ peine les quitter pour détailler les bijoux, ses habits, sa mčche savamment arrangée et son visage assez lisse.
Une pure merveille.
