moments in snatches

On one of my visits to the villages in Andhra Pradesh, I saw these beautiful women and couldn't help asking them to pose for me.

she sells peanuts and homemade cookies to school children during their recess

They are the Banjaras; a tribal group in India. What they are wearing now is their everyday wear...I simply love their silver jewelery and embroidered, colorful choli!

I fear the nose will get elongated if they continue to wear the nose ring....appears quite heavy. Gee! Nice photos.
