Support Amazing composition and quality. -- JovanCormac 12:22, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Comment And even more amazing is the fact (which I only realized after checking the EXIF data) that this was taken with a camera that you can buy used for 290 Euros! Yet it looks as professional as it gets. That's what I call a triumph of skill over equipment. -- JovanCormac 18:41, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Comment thanks, but really it's equipment over skills, i just did my best with the framing and pressed the button. praise the D40--Paulrudd (talk) 19:55, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
- Interesting, maybe I should buy that camera as well. Btw, the picture somehow reminds me of this very famous one. It's easily one of our best portraits. -- JovanCormac 22:22, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
I love it – I love it! How handy wouldn't a small reflector in situations like this one be? --Ernie (talk) 15:35, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Support Fantastic colors and a great atmosphere -- Je-str (talk) 15:40, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Support Wonderful. Care to share with us how you did the beautiful lighting? --Calibas (talk) 18:20, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Comment again, no technical skill whatsoever, the sun did everything...--Paulrudd (talk) 19:55, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
- The strong shadows caused by the harsh sunlight are a point to criticize the image. I guess it is a candid shot and for that it is an excellent portrait. --Ernie (talk) 22:24, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Comment She is not a muslim. Judging from attire and the fact that she is showing her face, I would say she is a normal Rajasthani village girl.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.169.86.92 (talk • contribs) 13:34, 2009 November 14 (UTC)
Comment "normal Rajasthani village girl", interesting choice of words. i guess muslim is abnormal? but she is : her brother (our guide in the desert) told us he's a muslim.--Paulrudd (talk) 09:35, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
Comment I believe what he meant is that in Rajasthan the vast majority of the population follows Hinduism, so normal would be his synonym for average. Wolf (talk) 15:46, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
