Friday Photography
Another hand photograph from the archives. This one was taken in Karachi, Pakistan. This photograph is of Sakina, our maid at that time. A fact that surprises some is that most people in 3rd world countries have maids. I went to her home where she ground herbs between two rocks. She is wearing glass bangles and her nail are colored orange with a henna, an alternative to nail polish.
This print can be purchased here.
It's a nice photo, the bracelets make is colourful.
