MOUNTAIN QUEEN



This was taken at a pit stop on our way to Kausani, Uttaranchal....The lady's costume and jewellery got me interested....we got talking.....she took out a beedi (cigarette) and started smoking as we were speaking.....I loved her look then....sitting erect, chatting and smoking a beedi nonchalantly....thats the image I wanted to capture...oh, well.....heres what I got....I am glad that it captures the details of her jewellery and attire....I also like the look on her boy's face.....a lost, dreamy look...(I offered him candy and thats what he is chewing on)

Interesting that she had a beedi! After seeing the picture closely, she even has a key attached to her necklace!
