Woman at Dakshin Chitra Originally uploaded by calamur.

Just got back yesterday after a 7 day tour of Tamil Nad. Mostly visiting temples. But, on the first day we went to Dakshin Chitra. This is a museum dedicated to preserving South Indian cultural traditions. Homes have been recreated to great precision - the centre of the exhibit is a Chettiyaar home from the Chettinad region. This was one of the attendants at Dakshin Chitra - found her face fascinating and photogenic. Also loved the interplay of light and shadow
