temple_snapshot (image)

A quiet snapshot taken on the steps of a small temple, looks like someone was trying to photograph the temple and she happened to be sitting there. The camera is slightly tilted, her face is caught mid-motion, as if she was looking away and just turned back. Her hand is frozen mid-air, reaching for a flower garland, her other hand resting on her knee but her fingers are twitching. Incense smoke curls around her face, partially blurring her features. A few marigold petals are scattered on the steps, and a small brass lamp is burning nearby, its flame flickering. In the background, a woman is walking past, half-blurred, and a cycle rickshaw is parked nearby. The light is soft but fading, casting long shadows. The photo is slightly underexposed on her face, a bit of motion blur on the smoke and her hand, heavy grain, a small scratch near the top edge. Natural skin with visible pores, a tiny mole near her jawline, no beauty filter. A stray cat is mostly out of frame, only its tail curling around a temple pillar at the bottom right corner.
