Worried
This shot was taken the day after the 9/11 attacks. I had to leave the Parvatti Valley where I was camped and went to the nearest village to try and use a phone. I wasn’t sure what was going on… so many rumours about the attacks. This little girl’s expression summed it all up for me.
Worried belongs to the following groups:
Childhood, Creative, Talented, and Unknown, Incredible India and Moody, Dark, Evocative (no nudes)

richard is very moving and with your backstory adds more to it. even though it was your feelings and emotions you where trying to capture… and you did! Beautiful!
Richard Barry replied
Thanks so much Jeff…. It was a very weird few days. We were enjoying being in the mountains when we started hearing stories about the attacks so we decided to move down to a small town and make a few calls… I remember the shock very clearly when it was confirmed. Thanks for your comments … much appreciated.
