Hi Giulio,

Thanks for sharing your images of these beautiful people.

The first image though out of foucs and elbows are cut off is interesting in that it places the person as a supplicant in devotion as if showing respect and asking for help too.

This is the very esence of prayer. It recognizes a superior authority and presumes that there is some help possible come from that power.

The secoond pciture, has the same feeling but boiled down to innocence.

Hi Giulio,

I enjoyed both this and the Kashmir set. I am very fond of Asian and Indian* art and how they are reflected in their communities and cultural institutions.

enjoy your day,

Sean

* I do not use Indian to mean anything but Indian. Hence when I say West Indian I am implying their are from Punjab or Kashmir and not the Americas.
