    Every life deserves a novel–clearly this beautiful woman has a story to share that would intrigue us all! The colors in the photo are absolutely beautiful!

  2. Ahmed Sharif Says:

    very intense picture……. the marks on her face are so pronounced……. like the tone as well….

  3. Dennis Says:

    She looks so sad. Or is it resigned to her fate. I guess I am in a melancholy mood this evening. Great portrait, though! I have been to Jodhpur and to the fort as well. It brings back fond memories of India.

  4. Marie Dunphy Harding Says:

    I wonder what she’s thinking! Is she thinking of her youth or the inevitable death; A life well spent or that of poverty , possibly abuse; Of her children or a barren womb?
    Perhaps she is looking to the Future, to a Life more pleasing than her Past has been.
    Her eyes are vague.Beauty still lies beneath that rugged face.

  5. Harry, ExposedPlanet.com Says:

    Beautiful capture, framing is wonderful as is her expression. Well done.

    A good portrait. Very intense.

  7. Albert @ ART OF PHOTOGRAPHY Says:

    A well composed and excellent portrait of a sad looking woman who has shown that she had surpassed and weathered through many obstacles in life.

  8. Richard Says:

    Funny at all the assumptions made based on her picture.

  9. a. Says:

    This is a very moving portrait. As Pieter said, she looks very intense. How old is this woman? (If you know)

  10. Rick Kearns Says:

    Terrific composition and lighting. Her face tells of many stories, now if only she could confirm them with us.

  11. Yanaar Lee Says:

    Brings tears to my eyes. Excellent!

  12. Malta Photography Malta Photography Says:

    A face of a thousand stories.

  13. Pauline Jones Pauline Jones Says:

    Older people feel the same as they did when they were younger; they just look different.

  14. Anurag Says:

    To me, rather than looking sad she appears more annoyed by the intrusion of her milieu by the camera. For all one knows she might be more happy and contended then all of us. Appearances can be deceiveing.

  15. ASH Says:

    nice capture!!!!!

  16. ziggy Says:

    She’s not fading. Those lines won’t be rubbed out easily. Thank you for bringing her and her lines to light.

  17. razeb Says:

  18. Ony Says:

    Speechless…In a word– Tremendous

  19. Tom Says:

    She doesn’t look relaxed. How old is this babe, anyway.
