    A wedding assignment very recently where I managed to take a photograph of the bride when the expression of reality struck her. There have been amazing expressions during this "Sindur Daan" ritual where the groom marks a stroke of vermillion on the Bride's forehead. The vermillion brings in positivity and inner strength as per Hindu Poplar Belief is concerned. Also it brings long life and prosperity.
