During the last few days in India I spent some time on the river farms just outside the Tibetan Colony at Majnu Ka Tilla. The last hour of light in the evening was absolutely magical. I'm going to search for favourite images and show them on this blog.

Between Singapore and Sydney is Adelaide Airport. Don't ask me why our plane stopped there but having to wait several hours for a connection is an Australian torture. From where I sat the first picture is looking right and the second looking left.

Majnu Ka Tilla and the very French street scenes. This is the hottest March since 1945. It hovers around 39 degrees day and night. It even reached 45.

Lasting impressions. Seeing again the river children of the Tibetan Colony.
The strange buildings that line the river road between Old Delhi and the Colony.
Leaving (and missing) Rajasthan after 4 weeks there.

Back in the cooler Tibetan Colony north of Delhi after a long train journey from Bundi. This place is fascinating, and after the hot weather the air is chocker with flies.

Tomorrow is Gangaur (Women's Festival). One image that defines India for me is of the gymnastic girl who rolled and flipped into on coming traffic, then popped up to ask for money. In a few years she may become part of the labouring women who break rocks by the road side.

Staying in Bundi, southern Rajasthan for 6 days. It's 45 degrees during the day when only mad cows and silly photographers venture out. The dry landscape is very beautiful and these photographs were taken in the middle of the day, when the workers were sleeping.

Stuffed Tigers are everywhere. One hotel room had 12 mixed animal heads on the walls (including alligator, leopard, buffalo, deer and elephant).
A guard in a museum of Tiger heads.

This is a family group I made last week and it is becoming a favourite from India. The little child with huge eyes featured in the India 11 post below as a close up.

These photographs remind me of my French landscapes. I was there in the 70s and I must look at the negatives again.

Group of people in the Thar Desert. These photos are cliche but the colours are very beautiful.
