Watchers

Hello dear watchers and friends,

as the title says, I need your help. I am taking part in a contest with one of my henna pictures. It's not a henna contest it is a design contest and what could be better as a henna design?

The first price is a SLR camera. My camera is quite okay but I am dreaming of an SLR but they are so pricey. I like caputuring nice moments, doing photo shoots with my friends and it would just be awesome to capture my henna work in a more professional way. If I would have such a great camera, I would definitely do photoshoots with models and so on.

But how can you help me now?
This is the link to the contest: [link]
You just have to "like" the photo to support me.
I would thank you even more if you could share this link with your friends!

Thank you so much in advance! :)

I come from Austria so please forgive me for my English!

I am very interested in the art of henna/mehndi. For all who do not know what henna or mehndi is:

Painting henna is very popular in countries like India, Egypt, Africa, Turkey, Morocco and Arabia.
It is a special art of drawing beautiful designs on hands and feets. Every country has their own designs and meanings. It is typically employed for weddings but also for special occasions (Diwali, Eid...).

If you want to get know more about mehndi, please visit my homepage or contact me!

Thank you ^^
No, I design every design on my own and apply the henna freehand. No stencils or similar stuff.

Thank you. It started several years ago. I am generally interested in other countries and cultures. It first started with Egypt, afterwards Japan and China and finally India. I don't know why but since that moment I stick to India. There is something fascinating about the country I can't describe. India is so rich of history, art, traditions, religion, and much more.

WOW! :eyepopping: Your designs are more creatively brilliant and intricate than the Indian henna artists I've seen at work in weddings. Have you been to India before?
