There is so much meaning layered into Indian art. Each hand gesture signifies something different, if I recall correctly. (Not that I remember what each of them means.)
We're in Canada. Bit of a refreshing change from south of the 48th Parallel.
Jilly you must have enjoyed tremendously taking this series. The quality of your photos is outstanding. Looking at them is a delight. The poses, the light, her facial expressions and hand gestures, everything is perfect here and I feel you've caught this beautiful dancer's essence. The only thing missing here is the music of course - what a pity. I find Indian music quite entrancing.
Looks like an interesting dance performance.
