People Photography – from Bali, Indonesia
People Photography from World…
Memories of people I have met and interacted during the travels. Some just smiled and passed by; some interacted in unknown languages, through gestures. All are stray episodes in travel carrying no significant meaning yet a memorable part of the journeys I made through the world. See more here…
People Photography Bali Indonesia
She is employed with Batik Hand loom center in Celuk Village of Ubud, Bali. Her duty there is to stitch the batik fabric into various dress patterns. As I stood watching her at work she looked up to give a warm smile. A non verbal expression which conveyed so much positivity!
Local of Uluwatu I am guessing, she was all smiles when she saw me as if we had some connection. She was waving frantically at me. Initially I was surprised but I waved back and then clicked. With that one smile we bonded may be only for less than a minute but I realized one doesn’t need a language to bond.
…an act of kindness there.
See his smile! He was so happy we bought some souvenirs from him. We haggled so much and reduced the price to half of what he quoted. Yet when we were leaving his shop he gave us such a big smile. It made me suspicious; I should have bargained more I thought. But later I thought he is happy because he could make a sale with some decent profit.
Our cheerful tour guide Deva. I miss his cheerful greetings in the mornings. He is a mine of information on Balinese culture, customs and traditions. Mr. Deva explained to us why Bali has so many temples. In his spare time he does the duties of a monk.
Such lovely smiling faces are always infectious! The man who is happy when you made a purchase after haggling with him, his smile is so unadulterated!
Beautiful snaps
Lovely selection!
You seem to have captured the perfect smiles in this trip – lovely pics!!
Very nice captures,all of them are in quite good mood.
I love connecting with locals to learn their stories and to learn about their cultures and traditions. This helps in understanding them and the place better. You shared some good memories captured with your photographs.
Initially I was surprised but I waved back and then clicked. 🙂 . I was struck not on the faces but the basket in some photographs . Very beautifully made . If I ever get a chance to be the , I will buy a lot of these baskets 🙂
