In the beginning, this specific tribe was associated with a foundation school near Behror, Rajasthan. They then move further away in order to remove themselves from the urban chaos and in search of their more traditional way of life.<p></p><p>This resulted in their children losing access to the foundation's school, one in which they are enrolled for about three hours per day, outside of their daily chores and work duties. While outside of class, these children collect plastic and so forth in order to sell in bulk later. They also approach certain people for donations in the streets.</p><p>As noted in Wikipedia, 'women are known to wear colorful and beautiful costumes and have tattoos on their hands.The dress is considered fancy and attractive by Western cultures. They use mirror chips and often coins to decorate it. Women put on thick bangles on their arms Their ornaments are made up of silver rings, coins,chain and hair pleat are tied together at the end by Chotla.'</p><p>Note: canvas print 36” x 36”</p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="background-color: transparent; color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> <span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></div></div>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-4309419267775248482023-01-23T07:33:00.004-05:002023-01-23T07:38:07.678-05:00Mursi Woman + Paint, Mago National Park, Lower Omo Valley, Ethiopia, 2010<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLcVFNsxze_M9L7l76K8JaTq5h5PWtAw3zzfY1nhJZ4yaNAUe4zYq77rREb934f8I3XiAf9ju_TSHuMOqFAjGagZ5nJOSmlUDSD1qqNFxqK7sVexRjQ5C3qsc6AhEntMX6gPmrZNOQ4N8lADEtUC-Mx9n_LDUuWHJ5E9wtum8mULN65-dicpP5sN4b/s1440/255238041_10158105477222484_8674487498332719518_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1355" data-original-width="1440" height="301" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLcVFNsxze_M9L7l76K8JaTq5h5PWtAw3zzfY1nhJZ4yaNAUe4zYq77rREb934f8I3XiAf9ju_TSHuMOqFAjGagZ5nJOSmlUDSD1qqNFxqK7sVexRjQ5C3qsc6AhEntMX6gPmrZNOQ4N8lADEtUC-Mx9n_LDUuWHJ5E9wtum8mULN65-dicpP5sN4b/s320/255238041_10158105477222484_8674487498332719518_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBdDzXBRhMxqZ6bvQ0h35s3s7rlzjD6rUxzG-GWmQrrT62sCNTqnjs2gHWLkAN1eHpO531wxnlMyUYVnVFYX4FyBcnjFVIN5RPJQbbQif_PBU1jaaz7WakMOx2XQ4NUKJ05VEBmozWXL-Jna9IQ4dovybe-JRqgzIrrCq1RGukH3w4xm7PKqK2rNRx/s1440/252247584_10158105477227484_2595753443166251888_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1359" data-original-width="1440" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBdDzXBRhMxqZ6bvQ0h35s3s7rlzjD6rUxzG-GWmQrrT62sCNTqnjs2gHWLkAN1eHpO531wxnlMyUYVnVFYX4FyBcnjFVIN5RPJQbbQif_PBU1jaaz7WakMOx2XQ4NUKJ05VEBmozWXL-Jna9IQ4dovybe-JRqgzIrrCq1RGukH3w4xm7PKqK2rNRx/s320/252247584_10158105477227484_2595753443166251888_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p>After a year in the darkroom it’s time to get the prints out.

Even though you'll see very few other Ethiopians in her area, vans of tourists stop now and then. Each time a group of tourists step out and walk into the village. Once they do the community walks over to them in order to try and earn a living with their goods, mainly the lip and ear plates as well as woven baskets. They also earn a living by being photographed, as each tourist pays a certain amount for a photograph.</p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="background-color: transparent; color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> <span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></div></div>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-52101343761305002092023-01-23T07:30:00.002-05:002023-01-23T07:38:23.458-05:00Delicate Arch, Arches National Park, Moab, Utah, 2016<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1-QGhdtXkYWp38MPqy_mbCAZF0_SM324sh2zpxrkc92NEvqO19iZiHaaKktgLsztxkXqi-KvErsaSBcPou25QMAL7E3eqAvT52qJLaQXWvHGKfwv_DLQ3cquuwXkEgsPl0Q6kZDUNc_BZ0SzSIji6cBolB6jBxHkj10Pf1ya3c2PeMvSZuYTX3avY/s1440/252068417_10158103553107484_4197949835904436486_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1-QGhdtXkYWp38MPqy_mbCAZF0_SM324sh2zpxrkc92NEvqO19iZiHaaKktgLsztxkXqi-KvErsaSBcPou25QMAL7E3eqAvT52qJLaQXWvHGKfwv_DLQ3cquuwXkEgsPl0Q6kZDUNc_BZ0SzSIji6cBolB6jBxHkj10Pf1ya3c2PeMvSZuYTX3avY/s320/252068417_10158103553107484_4197949835904436486_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirxpfzhFpDM81MOUNvPh5Ima4GzZUvwemmaiiy5KQDDpMWa0IPE8EzltAkmcwUHPIxjc58yIAcJko51Dps5Px2Axenjg3kFD2Z58ZlZVHibQ9cwyYgyWsrCXT5zXPxtAUGAk_65GhDcrLCew4PhoDsfxdVFW_L5R789GuNsJ9dL_2MG9OV43lWpL_O/s1440/252362990_10158103553112484_2295637027824030770_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirxpfzhFpDM81MOUNvPh5Ima4GzZUvwemmaiiy5KQDDpMWa0IPE8EzltAkmcwUHPIxjc58yIAcJko51Dps5Px2Axenjg3kFD2Z58ZlZVHibQ9cwyYgyWsrCXT5zXPxtAUGAk_65GhDcrLCew4PhoDsfxdVFW_L5R789GuNsJ9dL_2MG9OV43lWpL_O/s320/252362990_10158103553112484_2295637027824030770_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p>The miracle of Delicate Arch has remained with me to this day, as well as the hike to it.

They also earn a living by being photographed, as each tourist pays a certain amount for a photograph. </p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="background-color: transparent; color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> <span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></div></div>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-62922214644932223322023-01-09T10:10:00.002-05:002023-01-09T10:14:44.960-05:00Cuban in Front of His House, Manzanillo, Cuba, 2016<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt5mMTNnhDQx2TgizrEuVhOLonlwTMLQS6bJk-Jodr0UFKbFV0OdjJ9eNakOvg6NaSgRbIb-NYjpR3h7yuuA4vB8K14baFyO4IQqPMe-ZG_qw6LCgsJHNAUysgEaOyVVJrZVOXv5HJIGBnQThdWUZiKiPZyNUpJ5QXR_8wgzfuEZr3TZe_wS3dpgQQ/s1440/253268807_10158098513567484_736201219324021098_n-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt5mMTNnhDQx2TgizrEuVhOLonlwTMLQS6bJk-Jodr0UFKbFV0OdjJ9eNakOvg6NaSgRbIb-NYjpR3h7yuuA4vB8K14baFyO4IQqPMe-ZG_qw6LCgsJHNAUysgEaOyVVJrZVOXv5HJIGBnQThdWUZiKiPZyNUpJ5QXR_8wgzfuEZr3TZe_wS3dpgQQ/s320/253268807_10158098513567484_736201219324021098_n-2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I do miss the days when we used to drive into the countryside. We’d never know who we were going to run into, and the sessions were both instant and spontaneous. For this man's portrait we drove deep into the countryside near Manzanillo and ran across a small group of houses. Both young and older people were sitting around chatting when we arrived. They greeted us warmly and we had a conversation about the area, about their neighborhood. Once it came time for the photography they agreed and we set up for their portraits. The contrast between light and shadow deep in the woods was fascinating, albeit a bit difficult to print in the darkroom. I am sincerely blessed to have been introduced to the world through photography and hope to return to this area later this year.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="background-color: transparent; color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> <span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></div></div></div> <p></p>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-91914767330761763212023-01-08T15:11:00.003-05:002023-01-09T10:14:21.426-05:00Memories of Utah, Monument Valley, 2016<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrc9ouOA_RByPpNHk1S82iAGCcibIl4GvwDzCrHK6He71V67ZRGaEuPRHAOKy9NDH-mgZbajKegXf-w1ie55dWNCgUNPGnEwboSaGFTXJ403PfLrihr9oicfzTt6bKR_jBNegwwi2jLSr_ikMDObYgTxwip8MW3kZM6NVsbFbS8hf6BU0-WtIGoYvP/s960/252882175_10158096664467484_7604332955449757447_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrc9ouOA_RByPpNHk1S82iAGCcibIl4GvwDzCrHK6He71V67ZRGaEuPRHAOKy9NDH-mgZbajKegXf-w1ie55dWNCgUNPGnEwboSaGFTXJ403PfLrihr9oicfzTt6bKR_jBNegwwi2jLSr_ikMDObYgTxwip8MW3kZM6NVsbFbS8hf6BU0-WtIGoYvP/s320/252882175_10158096664467484_7604332955449757447_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>The grandeur of Monument Valley sticks with me to this day.

My host family welcomed me without question and gave me a room in which to stay for six weeks until my return home. So I would set up the camera on the tripod in the middle of the field and walk around and around. Once the moon was just right and birds started to fly, I would cross over to the center of the field to release the shutter. So this image has immense meaning for me, and I am thankful to have had such friends both on the ground and in the sky.</p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> </div></div><p></p>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-40850706732078152282022-12-29T18:10:00.003-05:002022-12-29T18:12:04.706-05:00Mentally + Physically Challenged, Kisumu, Kenya, 2007<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs9fswwSp0iHMP9ppwpzoGXn4nmfEW6wLWPs9X0fTHKHgoCNavv7SprntXR2xlPdmW-6qG3y6fYqmAG1S47sUH26S5sxcPO87o-Ip9XdF8CWhOaLCGXxZcwxdzsA9Bd7SbP4orJFL7bdnbT9BrLrh6feY1t06eQgISmD2MaF_VScS026DtqUQzOIu6/s1440/249886269_10158094869072484_3483012735158696462_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs9fswwSp0iHMP9ppwpzoGXn4nmfEW6wLWPs9X0fTHKHgoCNavv7SprntXR2xlPdmW-6qG3y6fYqmAG1S47sUH26S5sxcPO87o-Ip9XdF8CWhOaLCGXxZcwxdzsA9Bd7SbP4orJFL7bdnbT9BrLrh6feY1t06eQgISmD2MaF_VScS026DtqUQzOIu6/s320/249886269_10158094869072484_3483012735158696462_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2KNlFKX4hY4PlVeqKvOuOhBCcUvcrRtc6jqZoiEPf-O7TVfshYTV1GnHn45AyWm6wwAp3jNGe6ou_aPEzxY4XFTz46skAu5gZ40_rjmW6eZJz5O0RCaZHNWmi-TgVlXGwzztcOye8NGrQ8uyKt680cXZc6g86MnaCndxtNuiI1wTXpbQCflvc7lwW/s1440/250546433_10158094869077484_8581802753934359695_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2KNlFKX4hY4PlVeqKvOuOhBCcUvcrRtc6jqZoiEPf-O7TVfshYTV1GnHn45AyWm6wwAp3jNGe6ou_aPEzxY4XFTz46skAu5gZ40_rjmW6eZJz5O0RCaZHNWmi-TgVlXGwzztcOye8NGrQ8uyKt680cXZc6g86MnaCndxtNuiI1wTXpbQCflvc7lwW/s320/250546433_10158094869077484_8581802753934359695_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />Over 16 years ago it was my privilege to visit this region and photography two homes for mentally and physically challenged individuals.

Here we are, welcomed into the most prestigious school for models in Havana, and allowed to interact equally with her students. These relationships over the years have turned into true friendships, and the collaborations are like times with friends. </p><p>Patricia is all the above and more, as this session in the countryside exemplifies. She brings a great attitude with her, as well as a great selection of clothing. Some say that this is anything but real photography, that photography in Cuba should be about photographing life as it presents itself in the streets. I say why not photograph the people as they would like to present themselves, as models and dancers and actors?</p><p>Well here is Patricia as a model, something that she has aspired to be in her young life. A incredible one truly in my humble opinion.</p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> </div></div>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-40878774490494796222022-12-26T10:42:00.005-05:002022-12-26T10:51:35.965-05:00Young Girl + House, Crimea, Cuba, 2015<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQthjTJgKrppIXQ7V-n4AijqtP2F6JoJVWPjpRaQqVLhkZrmKPTJcInvws0TcaGHv0_xDhDY5m9mHt-F7-BUBL6pDtNDfILZVzNq53ADl2gFjccwc_i25DbOcK8Hci44FAI1hn-UAKOirwc9A-O4CZesJot6j1wGZJMFNxhMwZrsZtuRyZ_39F-GBB/s1440/246639028_10158078001387484_8750745383456630071_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQthjTJgKrppIXQ7V-n4AijqtP2F6JoJVWPjpRaQqVLhkZrmKPTJcInvws0TcaGHv0_xDhDY5m9mHt-F7-BUBL6pDtNDfILZVzNq53ADl2gFjccwc_i25DbOcK8Hci44FAI1hn-UAKOirwc9A-O4CZesJot6j1wGZJMFNxhMwZrsZtuRyZ_39F-GBB/s320/246639028_10158078001387484_8750745383456630071_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Driving into the Cuban countryside is a privilege, both because few can do so and also because of the people we meet. We arrived at this spot by happenstance, as we turned left off of the main road to venture. We met a man at a fruit stand and purchased a few items, all the while having a conversation and making his portrait. He told us of his village and invited us to visit. We decided to go and, long story short, ended up photographing this young girl's neighborhood. I'm grateful for her time, and the warmth that her family showed us during our times there. It's been many years since 2015 and I look forward to the possibility of visiting them once again in 2023.</div><br /><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #999999; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> </div></div><p></p>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-37552710385555936652022-12-26T10:36:00.005-05:002022-12-26T10:51:17.159-05:00Young Boy + Rice Field, Manzanillo, Cuba, 2017<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFsZKT2YnQN3s5L_lR44BDt8QsR16KfFyithXfycQjjDOnim3VOMsMEJtum1a_W2kHj6yLC3mryMYdcuX7LFM2K1FonI2SBIhym4A7PVjHXhEVtlSupfDVPeoMKmFXolLxF2Vi2WQITr5hmp3-jBkeSOhplAlQTDZD5bswME8OXgGhIQm3433BUHqN/s1440/248692060_10158077964407484_4522844053282490761_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFsZKT2YnQN3s5L_lR44BDt8QsR16KfFyithXfycQjjDOnim3VOMsMEJtum1a_W2kHj6yLC3mryMYdcuX7LFM2K1FonI2SBIhym4A7PVjHXhEVtlSupfDVPeoMKmFXolLxF2Vi2WQITr5hmp3-jBkeSOhplAlQTDZD5bswME8OXgGhIQm3433BUHqN/s320/248692060_10158077964407484_4522844053282490761_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>I remember this image like it was yesterday. We had driven out to the eastern part of the island and were concentrating on a family living in the city for the photography. We also were able to drive to the countryside and meet some wonderful people. This young boy actually lived in the city but liked to visit his grandparents in the countryside. Alejandro was able to pull up within 100 meters or so of the house, but was limited due to the muddy path. </p><p>So I decided to get out and walk the rest of the way to speak with the family. They were very kind and welcomed me onto their property. Their home was a traditional one, constructed of wood. Their grandson showed interest in the camera and so we decided to play around, as he grabbed this tool and headed into the rice field. It was a great experience and one for which I am forever grateful. This is what the island means to me, incredible people and honest interactions.</p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;

We went from village to village, from school to school, in search of incredible people and stories. This school was on the outskirts of Kisumu, and we walked just to the side to make portraits of the entire student body. Some children had shoes and some lacked, while almost all of the children were wearing the only uniform that they possessed. The foundation is doing remarkable work given the conditions, and I applaud their efforts sincerely. <p></p><div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif;

Uno de mis recuerdos favoritos es el tiempo que pasé con este increíble artista, ya que hablamos de arte y de la vida en general. ¡Han pasado tres años desde que vi su trabajo, y espero llevarme a casa algunas de sus creaciones más nuevas el próximo año! </p><p>'Orígenes' por Rapé, 2017</p><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="Instagram Website Tumblr Twitter" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Etsy</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/haliminaphotography/" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div><div style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #404040; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/halim.ina/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Instagram</a></span><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.halimina.org/" style="color: #999999; line-height: 20px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Website</a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://halim-ina-photography.tumblr.com/" style="color: #999999; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></span><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> </a></div><div style="line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://twitter.com/HalimIna" style="color: #999999; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> </div></div>Halim Ina Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459397310904312489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509083330688045699.post-25337170209766138122022-12-22T06:38:00.005-05:002022-12-22T06:46:52.148-05:00Zion National Park, Utah, 2016<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP-500H24AD8-xSvassESd2ft_6cJywZyoMi0eS4LqZiFXt7KB3ZEEejPvJn5wm22sLHKsRetksT8o6xU_W27sUg7RVUixnnpnDdoAk5XayhTLvjCrdVgBFElsSQqJjVhDwWTZ1wkbEHMW3NgqDDR6Epjer95OaD10ITjBVUVc2do9O8o9MWkeDU6d/s1800/245368079_10158062639047484_9073195080848912301_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1800" data-original-width="1440" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP-500H24AD8-xSvassESd2ft_6cJywZyoMi0eS4LqZiFXt7KB3ZEEejPvJn5wm22sLHKsRetksT8o6xU_W27sUg7RVUixnnpnDdoAk5XayhTLvjCrdVgBFElsSQqJjVhDwWTZ1wkbEHMW3NgqDDR6Epjer95OaD10ITjBVUVc2do9O8o9MWkeDU6d/w320-h400/245368079_10158062639047484_9073195080848912301_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p>It’s time to get back to the portraits, just had a lot of fun with the landscapes. While working my first corporate gig a few years ago, I had the opportunity to travel the States and bring my camera along.
