Jodhpur India

light rest


When I first saw her, I jumped to conclusion that she's one of the street beggars.
But she's merely resting her feet and taking her drink. Shame on me!
It's also interesting to observe the way she squatted as I heard that there is a
difference between the asians who usually do a full squat with feet down and flat,
while the westerners who do their squat with slight tiptoeing. Is it true???

The light is harsh, and I imagine hot. I'm suprised she decided to rest in teh light rather than the shade, but the light makes the picture.

It's true - and I think it's because it's not normally something we Westerners do. (I was amazed when I lived in Singapore how many people, young to the very old, were limber enough to assume this position!)
