I selected these three photographs for use here before thinking about what I wanted to say about them. What I realized then was that in each one the woman's faces are either obscured, or turned away.
This wasn't intentional, and I certainly took quite a few straightforward photographs of woman's faces while in Bangladesh. I also found that everyone there, including woman, were quite open to having their photographs taken. More often than not it was hard to prevent them from smiling or waving, rather than have them put off by being the subject of one of my candid moments.
So why did I select these three images?
I think because of their enigmatic character. In each of these photographs we are presented with a bit of a mystery. Who are these people? What are they doing? And, why? It's that characteristic that can make photographs of people most appealing, and I've explored this aspect of photographing people here on previous occasions.
