Apatani style sent on January 24, 2015 (18:21) by Memy. 20 comments, 1519 views.

,

Tra meno di 4 ore ci si alza per salire sul volo di ritorno. Posto una delle pochissime foto che rivisto di questo a dir poco intenso viaggio che ci ha permesso di vedere varie Indie del tutto differenti..... La foto ritrae una donna Apatani, una tribù di ceppo tibeto-birmano conosciuta proprio per i caratteristici " tappi " di bambù inseriti nelle narici e per tatuaggi. La tradizione vuole che, le bellissime donne Apatani, stanche delle sgradite avances degli uomini di altre etnie, abbiano deciso di imbruttirsi consapevolmente per essere lasciate in pace!!! Così, secondo la tradizione, sarebbe nata l'usanza di tatuarsi il viso e inserirsi grosse placche di legno scuro nelle narici. Le nuove generazioni hanno ormai abbandonato questa usanza e vedendo i loro visi viene da pensare che non sia un ipotesi priva di fondamento......

Many thanks Paul!
actually the initial plan another route, but a series of attacks by separatist groups, forced us to change most of the trip a few days before departure.
In all ways I am very happy to have seen even the Apatani who were among the tribes of 'Arunachal Pradesh that I had not seen ...

extraordinary interest for the image and very well crafted. Thank you for the caption that tells me uha reality 'I did not know. In my opinion it could be done even in "portrait" lascinado image around the neck visible. Many congratulations, hello, Marco.

Thanks Mark,
although I do not miss the shots wider, I preferred this more narrow focus' s attention on the eyes and then the nose ....
The photography is beautiful because in front of the same subject, even when shooting at the same time, everyone can propose their own point of view:-P
