Hi Antoni,
Seems like the beginning of an interesting novel :) Excellent POV. However I am sure, the gossip had more to do with your appearance in the village :)
Jeypore is pretty interior, not the usual 'hunting' places for western tourists? So what's ur story?
Best Wishes

Hi Antoni, super photo and very realistic to a day in the life of one of these village girls. Youve really managed to capture that slightly worse side to our character of talking about other peoples buisness! I think that the boy and mother facing us is very effective and there expressions fit the mood of them having heard the others talking. Thank you for sharing.

A nice grouping around the tree, Antoni. The black and white give it a nice retro feel. The boy and the woman in the background seem to be trying to hear what is beiag said.

Hello Antoni.
It's a nice shot and a nice note. Most photographer would prefer colors for this scene, and I am sure that color version is beautiful. But I appreciate your choice for b/w because it makes this picture very unique and very interesting. I like the young woman at the back, and the way she is looking at you or trying to listen to the gossips..
Beautiful shot, and very well captured.
Itzik
