Our very brief stay in India is drawing to a close and we’re preparing to make our way onwards to Vietnam.
There’s been many highlights for us here. The people, the scenery and the food have all been great.
We did the pretty standard tourist thing and got a driver to take us on a Rajasthan loop, staying in some pretty interesting old hotels along the way, including a gorgeous old palace overlooking the lake in Udaipur.
The driver was great, although his English was very limited and we didn’t get much out of him, most questions were met with a smile, a head wobble and deafening silence.
Shepherd: We came across this fellow and his flock of goats on the road between Jodhpur and Ranakphur.
Saree: This woman had washed out a saree and was busily folding it up when we passed her in Jodhpur.
Bicycle: A quiet spot outside of Jaipur.
Watching the world go by in Jodhpur.
Going Home: I don’t think we’ll be doing the shopping this way when we get home.
More shopping going home.
The Blue city: Jodphur views from the fort walls.
Jodhpur back street.
On their way to school one morning. ” Can we take a photo?”……Answer…”No”..

The local shop.
Waiting: India can be frantically busy, but occasionally you can come across a quiet corner.
Passing by. Just about to take a shot of the nice old door when this fellow strode across infront of us.
Keeping watch: We came across this group outside their home in Udaipur, watching the world go by as the sun set.

Great collection of captures. India is one of the most stunning visual areas that I have ever been.
Thanks Kurt, it sure is a visual feast, a photo opportunity on every corner
Random, but very nice. But Rajasthan is so tourist-y. Would love to see you shooting other bits.
Do you feel that being “so tourist-y” disqualifies the beauty of these shots?
Ha, no, it would be good to get out to the less touristy areas though, that’s for sure. Just trying to and explain that to a driver though is pretty hard.
Golly – like this even more. Granted the Indian colours are gorgeous, but you really do them justice in this set.
Thanks again, I think I’ll try a set of B&W as well and see how they look.
Beautiful shots… 😉
Nice work Roscoe really nice mate
Thanks Brett, we tried catching up with Crouchy while in Delhi, but he was away in Sri Lanka..shame really, it would have been fun, maybe next time
Great photos as usual. I’m looking forward about your adventures in Vietnam. It’s one country I really want to go to.
Thanks Kyla. We are in Vietnam now and enjoying it, the only problem is the Viet Govt have blocked access to both wordpress and facebook, so we may not be able to put up any posts with any regularity. Fingers crossed.
great photos and loving the one with the cow 🙂
lovely pics!
Thanks for that Andrew. Glad you like them.
Really great photo’s and love the colors. While they are all really good, the last one with the ladies sitting outside their home keeps calling me. Lovely!
Glad you liked them. 🙂
