Color in people photography

Today in the morning walk, as I turned towards another street I came upon two women in bright red sarees against the morning sun. Their figures etched against a bright orange light presented a most inviting photo-opportunity. In people photography it is the colors, shapes and textures of random people that make for beauty.

More particularly it is the dominant splash of color emerging out of one or two figures that becomes the chief motif of the picture .Here it is the color that plays the main part in the drama of human actions as though the color explains everything and is the motive spring for the subsequent human actions.
