Hi Caleb Colman,

Though I have not yet visited the Kutchh area, but I have heard about the vibrant colors are used by the Kuchhies. This is the live example of the same. You have captured the girl beutifully. The whole beauty is in colors.

With regards.

Hi Caleb,

nice colors ! Interesting how the colors of the dress are repeated in the background. The gesture of the girl is a little bit strange. Looks like the girl is scratching her itching arm.... And I am not sure what the eyes of the girl want to tell us...

Hi Caleb!

Excellent, this duo of yellow and violet, both on the wall and on the dress! The extremely vivid colors catch the eye, and her shameless look also! I wonder what she was doing? It looks like she was dancing! Congratulations

Hi Caleb,
The girl's piercing eyes in beautiful color attracted me strongly. Perfect framing and pp as always.
Did you carry two cameras during your travel.

Dear Caleb

Another fine capture from you, the color is amazing. And those eyes! The eyes... great capture.

I think you're my 'composition guru', especially when it comes to portrait.

Keep inspiring us...

I think Geert said it for me - those colours, those eyes are both mesmerizing and haunting.
this is great eye-contact, intriguing pose and stunning saturation.

Such fabulous colours set against that purple background...that direct gaze is also memorable. Your Indian shots are good enough to be published...you should do something with them.
Cheers
Ryno
