this is not exactly a people shot--anyway, it's of a guy in coorg, south india, a ritual chap who uses that mean looking double bladed knife to slash himself on the head and draw a lot of real looking blood.

UPDATE:

inciedentally, (skip the spelling) i didn't get shots of them at the moment of hammering their skulls with that knife...why?
1. we're not allowed into the sanctum santorum
2. they don't actually do it--threre's a lot of neat chemistry behind real looking blood.

hey--where's the 'other' people thread?


update:
oh--so there was another thread---not my fault if it was buired deep down in page 14

Great shots are your first 2 photos.
I really like 'em, mostly the B&Wone with this boy, so alone....

Bald Eagle-

I have my husband in a wheelchair, so I can REALLY relate to your photo. Thank you very much for posting it. It tells a very vivid story.

speaklightly, you are very welcome. This couple caught my eye. I had never seen that type of set-up before, but, it made perfect sense. It even includes a large umbrella. To me it shows to all the world how much that man loves that woman.
