Faces of India – 177 Gardener of Resort in Mysuru
A gardener in one of the resorts of Mysuru where I stayed recently. Somebody was kind enough to spare her a shirt so that she doesn’t spoil her saree at work. She was busy trimming the grass with the tool beside her yet she seemed interested in talking to me.
Faces of India
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. See more here…
Gardener of Resort in Mysuru
Last week I had this small guessing game, asking you to guess his job, the only clue being his shirt, his uniform. Thank you so much for participating.
The answer is: he is a waiter in one of the restaurants here in Bangalore. So many of you were close. Nisha made many guesses and one of them was right. Among my Facebook friends Aloka was there with right answer.
What a lovely face! Mesmerising smile she has!
Your portraits are important, Indrani

Her saree is really a good one. I loved the design and color combo..very trendy. Glad someone was thoughtful/kind to realize she needed one while working in dirt. So, we have 2 characters that were portrayed in this (visible and invisible)
too good…!!!
She has a contented with happiness on her face, and trimming the grass this way will take a long time!

Nice Innovative Series. The smile on the face is awesome
She has a kind face and makes me remember one of my aunties (cook) in the hostel as a rule I call all aunty, bua, mausi and I don't know why she gave me an extra dollop of butter for the breakfast
I like your post on faces of India..nice topic
Its like giving respect to people you meet in your everyday life…and that lady is looking beautiful with her subtle smile…nice pic
she's so graceful! so lovely..
Lovely portrait! She's smiling so sweetly.
A gardener is always the happiest man on earth. This is portrayed in your picture. She looks so happy.
What a beautiful picture, so much personality !
Great portrait of the gardener.
I suspect a lot of people are interested in speaking with you. You make everyone look so good. 🙂
Beautiful capture on her 🙂
She has a friendly-looking face, the kind of person who looks easy to approach. I'm not surprised she was happy to talk to you.
I really like this portrait. She has a shy smile on her face.
A lovely, friendly face and another great shot for the day, Indrani! As you know, I do so enjoy this series and it's always a bright spot in my weekend!!
Very interesting…I have not seen too many female gardeners! 🙂

So nice pic
She has a very kind face, a wonderful portrait.
What a sweet face. I was always so impressed by and in admiration of ladies doing this kind of work, so beautifully dressed.
Love the gardener, smiles most of times.
What a whimsical expression that beautiful lady has. We also have lady gardeners here in Tanzania and I think I should try to capture them. In South Africa women deem it beneath them to work in the gardens while the men won't work in houses! Thanks for sharing. Aw, and I thought your man last week was a musician! Greetings Jo
she is a pretty woman.
