Faces of India – 152 Women Farmers of India
On this International Women’s Day I have these cheering women farmers of India. The picture was taken in Chikmagalur, Karnataka! I saw them toiling under hot sun with just a piece of cloth on head. In spite of all hardships they can smile and wave to a passerby! I salute their spirits!
Faces of India,
Faces of India is a series through which I intend to portray the various characters of my country whom I met during my travels. I bring back souvenirs, frozen moments from my travels, why not some memories of people I have met and interacted during the travels. Faces of India is a weekly series in my blog since MARCH 2011.

Women Farmers of India
This is my 1000th post in this blog.
What a fitting post for 1000th..Excellent capture..!
I had to refresh the page four times before the image loaded completely (something to do with my network speed) and it was worth the wait.
beautiful capture !
This one is a treat for the eyes. Very apt for the occasion.
It's so inspiring seeing women accomplishing a hard role with strength and joy. I hope that they develop thriving farms. Congrats on your 10001 post!
Nice capture. It reminds me of the song "Mere desh ki dharti sona ugle ugle heere mothi, Mere desh ki dharti".
It's a feat reaching 100o posts. congrats.
A cheerful capture.
Amazing sense of photography.
Congrats on 1000th.
I am waiting to see another 1000th soon. Nice snap. Female farm workers toil more hard during sowing. They do a fast and sincere work only to get less pay as compared to their male counterpart.
Hi Indrani,Awesome pics as always and aptly portrayed on the occasion of IWD. While they might not be aware of the significance of the day, you have put them in front of the world through this pic. That is very thoughtful of you. Also hearty congratulations on your 1000th post.

Where most of us were thinking should we have a women's day and should we celebrate or what is there to celebrate? Here is the answer, these ladies have the spirit to smile no matter what, this is true strength and hats off to them. Wishing you a happy women's day too.

It is so nice of you to celebrate the Women's Day with picture of toiling women in the hot sun.
So down to earth. And so fresh-looking. I see the harmony between the most wonderful of creations- nature and women, both of them being mothers. There is not a single male around – no wonder there is a natural happiness in the picture.
Beautiful pic for IWD! Salute their spirits!
