ALL 2012 National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest – in HIGH RESOLUTION. Part 4: “Travel Portraits”, Weeks 7-14 (67 Photos)

“The souls thief”. I captured this photo last year in Delhi. When I looked through the camera she stared at me and started to move from side to side. I often heard of ancient cultures whose members believed their souls could be stolen by taking pictures of them, so they generally refused to be photographed. In this case it was different. In fact, it was me who was intimidated by her movement and her penetrating gaze. In the few seconds we looked at each other, I really felt as if she was trying to capture my soul... and in some way, she did.
