Spotlight
If you are a foreigner in a public area in Bangladesh, you will inevitably attract a small audience of gawkers. Mostly they just want to check you out, stare at you, ask you where you're from and see what you are doing. I was inside a factory shooting the workers when this little girl and her friends from the neighborhood walked in to see what I was doing. Her photogenic face caught my eye so I asked her to pose for me. LIght was streaming through holes in the corrugated iron roof above creating light rays from the smoke inside the factory. She clearly relished the spotlight while her friends standing in the doorway behind her watched with envy at the action. It’s a striking juxtaposition of her beauty against the stark backdrop of the factory.
