Photographic Expression
Case Studies: India
146
Priti was down by the lake taking pictures of the ducks with the others. As she walked up the hill to the Village, she stopped, turned the camera around and took this self-portrait. Usually someone bursting with energy and constantly racing around, this picture caught her at a reflective moment. This was in the last day of using the cameras and at same time as some of the girls started reflecting more deeply on the images.
