These women from Rajasthan state of India are getting ready to offer their prayer in the festival of HOLIKA DAHAN being performed before the main festival of HOLI--- The Festival Of Color
mysterious feeling caused by the smoke, beautiful color of red and gold, it is a colorful ritual.. wonderful capture with this difficult lighting.. regards..
Already a very impressive portrait, always like to see people with traditional clothing in portraits, I believe that is a great element to give something unique, something very special from a place...and mostly from the place anybody IS... after that, the portrait is NOT another one, a common, excellent shot... about the smoke I think that adds something about religion and that is also good... of course excellent!
