What a wonderful photo. Bravo
You somehow capture not only a great photo shot, but also tremendous amounts of emotion from your subjects. It’s one thing to capture a shot, quite another to capture a feeling. Fantastic work. Thank you.
So interesting to see traditions kept alive. Impressive photo too!
Wonderful lighting, striking contrast.
Gorgeous lighting, color and texture. So striking.

Another brilliant portrait shot, Joshi. Love the detail at the side and on his face. Looks like a very skilled make-up artist, making himself known even though he is in the background :)
So dramatic Joshi!

really enhances
the make up :-)
Picture perfect.
So dramatic. What is the make-up used for? A ceremony of some sort?
Dark and mysterious love it
Extraordinary portraiture work,amazing details,dear Joshi :)
All colours came out so beautifully.
The intensity of Kathakali, as a dance form, shows in the intensity of the dancer applying make-up.
Brilliant!
make-up is like a mask-so other-worldly. Lovely captures.
One can feel the concentration. Beautiful!
Magnificent work!
Have a nice week!
