[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Phulkari, an embroidery technique from the Punjab in India, literally means flower working, which was at one time used as the word for embroidery, but in time the word “Phulkari” became restricted to embroidered shawls and head scarfs. Simple and sparsely embroidered odini (head scarfs) and shawls, made for everyday use, are called Phulkaris, whereas garments that cover the entire body, made for special and ceremonial occasions, are known as Baghs ("garden").

Hi Nathalie,
This is a beautiful image. I really like the softness /blurred bg with the sharp details of the flower. Nice complimentary framing. TFS Julie
