A superb gallery, that makes us travel with you. You did a great job exposing your shots as well, the tones are warm and most of all, the faces are unforgettable. Funny the first 2 comments. With almost 400 million living with less than a dollar, maybe 2 a day, I wonder what real India they are talking about.... As real as it gets and you have produced excellent work..

WHEN I WENT TO EGYPT, TOUR PEOPLE SHOWED US ONLY POVERTY,
I HAD TO GO ON MY OWN WAY TO SEE THE NORMAL SIDE, SHOPS AND
PEOPLE DRIVING UP IN MERCEDES BENZ CARS TO SHOP. BEST TO
SEE BOTH SIDES, THE REALITY.
VERY NICE PICTURES. BUT I AGREE, SHOW BOTH SIDES.

Very well said, people from out side world only shows and project the dirty image of india, I am from this place only and this pics only depict the bad part...why the hell they dont wanna show the wrigt image....????

Bobby 20-Oct-2006 17:41
Nice, but do you think how many people of world will see it, so why don't you put some prograssive and beautiful picture. Some picturs are good and its interior India. Now these are not really India. I agrred still it has but it show poor India. and other contries people wanna see it, they took only this type of picture, So please add some Advance Indian Picture's, and beautiful places, neat n clean places. Did you ever see other contries picture like this. They always show the BEST.
