the burden of untold stories

I met this woman at Guda Vishnoi, a village close to Jodhpur district in Rajasthan (India). You can read more about the Bishnoi tribe here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishnois

 

As I pointed my camera towards her, she posed readily and adeptly, as if she did it everyday. She also made some tea for us and offered her odhni (headcloth) to me so I could take my picture in it.
