If only i could take such pictures i would consider myself gifted. I am amazed at the theme and composition, with a digital camera i used to think those digital slr are only gimmick but the results are awesome, i used to get my negatives scanned for converting my pics to digital. I will try digital now , and hey you are superb... with the rabel . I am going to Gangtok on 20th want some pics let me know

V.B.RAMANI		26-Nov-2005 12:33
Excellent collection; I am particularly impressed by the photographs of the people chosen by you and the composition of the pictures; The face and the mood brings forth a multitude of meaning and leaves a lasting impression. More than the scenaries, the faces are what you are best in capturing. Thanks for the collection

Baba Faisel		12-Nov-2005 09:06
Your pictures are crisp and serene The emotion is pure and raw And above all that You have left me in awe Do you have anymore pictures of India?

guest		21-Oct-2005 20:16
Do not know the alphabet of photography but the pictures are maginficient. As you can imagine coming from that very place it really touched me.

Riz		19-Oct-2005 13:00
Dear Matt' I found your pictures to be of classic magnitude, they are really stunning to look at You have used the colour combinations of flags and the sky really well. But just a humble thought Matt, maybe you could use light filters to lessen the brightness of the shots having clouds in it

andria lepcha		20-Sep-2005 22:04
my paternal lineage comes from this area, and i would like to commend you for taking the time and effort to expose these places and people that are so beautiful to the rest of the world... thank you

hey matt, just loved your photos. im from neighbouring pakistan but live in the usa. my passion is to visit the northern areas of pakistan all the time. but i have long wished to go to darjeeling, sikkim and other places in the north east. your photos took me there allready. the monasteries are so beautiful, the hills so green and the landscape so vast. just love it.

Thierry BUFFEL		12-May-2005 21:04
I'll go to Sikkim in three days for about two weeks and I've looked even at your pictures : I'd enjoyed really much. Tehy gave me such a nice taste of this country. Thank you. Look at my website when I'll be back :http://www.voyag-images.net/ Thierry

Nicholas		26-Mar-2005 20:42
Your images are really nice. I am a volunteer from wikipedia www.wikipedia.org that aims to create a FREE encyclopedia. You could help us by contributing images to wikipedia, as pix speak a thousand words. (I have personally been to Kalimpong last Dec and have added some images on KP and Sikkim). Ypu would need to create an account there (takes half a minute only) and upload images. You may mail me for more details.

Very good gallery. Some striking shots. And you have avoided most of the Indian picture cliches. Good eye, and you seem to appreciate that subtlety can be more effective than hitting someone over the head.
