Halakki tribe woman | Hegde, Kumta, Karnataka, India | 2012
Halakki tribal people are found in the Uttara Kannada district of Karnataka state in India. Halakki tribe women wear sarees without a blouse. They decorate their necks with many beaded necklaces and hands with metals bangles.
Yes they are from my native place . They are part and parcel of our culture.
But slowly the younger generation is not wearing bead necklace and wearing saree properly. Nice capture
The lines on her face show a lot of character. She has a powerful look in her eyes. The necklaces look very ceremonial. Great close-up. It has a lot
of clarity. Well done …!!!!
Liked the rarity of the subject. However, the framing could have been better without slicing the head off. Colour enhancement-moderate and suits the simplicity of the presentation…
lovely
A good capture Joshi.
Nice to know about the tribe.
Great!
Been to UK many a times did not know. Intense gaze and so well lit!
Piercing eyes and super light – I really like this one.
Beautiful colors!
Nice light in the nice portrait of the serious woman.
Would be interesting to see it in blackwhite also.
interesting light shades!!! loved it…
The tribal woman LIVES in your photo Joshi!
full of life…..

Wonderful face.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Such intensity in this face…but as I looked at it for awhile, I imagined her smiling, and how her face would be lit up.
I like the light & shadow work…gud one
