Description

A close portrait photograph captured by Rory Payne shows a young child with a dark mohawk hairstyle and traditional thanaka paste applied in patterned stripes across both cheeks and the bridge of the nose. The child wears a dark blue denim jacket with visible metal buttons over an orange graphic t-shirt. The background is softly out of focus with neutral tones and a horizontal metallic bar running across the upper frame. The lighting is direct and natural, highlighting the textures of the facial paste and the denim fabric.
