Fier rajput

Pushkar (Inde) - Pour ce portrait, je ne me suis pas laisser surprendre comme pour le précédent. Je me suis placé à un endroit où je pouvais avoir un arrière plan qui soit facilement lisible et qui le prendrait pas trop d’importance. Comme il y avait de nombreux paysans rajputs autour du lac ce matin là, je ne doutais pas que j’aurais l’occasion de faire quelques portraits.

C’est ce qui est arrivé avec ce vieil homme. Je ne lui ai rien demandé, mais lorsqu’il a vu que je le photographiais, il s’est arrêté et m’a regardé un peu étonné. Pour éviter toute contestation, je lui ai fait un petit signe de la main et lui ai montré la photo sur l’écran de contrôle de l’appareil. Il a eu un petit rictus que j’ai pris pour un sourire et a repris sa route.

 

 

Proud rajput

 

Pushkar (India) - For this portrait, I did not let myself be surprised as for the previous one. I put myself in a place where I could have a background that was easily readable and that wouldn't take too much importance. As there were many Rajput peasants around the lake that morning, I had no doubt that I would have the opportunity to do some portraits.

This is what happened with this old man. I didn't ask him anything, but when he saw that I was photographing him, he stopped and looked at me a little surprised. To avoid any dispute, I gave him a small wave and showed him the photo on the device's control screen. He gave a little smirk that I mistook for a smile and resumed his journey.
