I love India! This place has my heart for sure!! I just arrive, and I actually feel home. I lived in Bombay for five years–that was the longest I had lived anywhere since I had lived with my parents for 18 years in Spokane, Washington. The people of India are so amazingly kind that their beauty therefore simply radiates. I cannot believe I didn’t have a decent camera while living there. No worries, I made up for some lost time on this trip! Just in this day alone I think there were 200+ pictures. Don’t worry–I won’t post them all! I have the pics to strum through though to bring me back to this land I cherish. Here’s the first collection of Indian street style that stood out to me. They dress so colorfully!
Many times I would simply sneak up behind a perfectly taken picture and ask if I too could snap the shot. That’s how I got this beautiful pic of this handsome couple. Love radiates for sure! And the girl above–she was their photographer.
Oh, the children of India! They are GORGEOUS! Parents paint kohl around the eyes to ward against any evil–or maybe it’s just to enhance their beauty! Probably a little of both!!
I couldn’t help but take some photos of the mamajis and babajis of India. They too are so glorious with each of their steps beckoning some sort of history. I love meeting people in India and the stories they all have to tell.
I just thought this guy looked cool, neh? (That’s Hindi for no?)
We ran into this white hatted tour group later on in the day at the next tourist destination….
This scene was too cute. This lady was definitely suffering from some sort of fashion malfunction with her chappal (Hindi for sandal). Once she finally fixed her shoe, her son helped to reassemble herself. Just the sight of the son helping his mum made me miss Vincent terribly.
This pic was fun. I took a picture of this photographer shooting another guy–posing so funnily. Then, they caught me! So we decided to exchange pics–me getting him and then he got me. I wonder where my picture will end up….I should have exchanged cards so he could see that he was up on Kremb de la Kremb!
If you don’t mind too much there will be more [wonderful] pictures from India! Stay tuned….
