A shop near our hotel Le Dupleix, Pondicherry, India<br />
It WASN'T a pet shop but as the sign says, they sold different juices! :-) <br />

  • A flower for Amy (Wilburn)<br />
Seeing Amy's stunning image of Jesse I tried the technique on a sun flower pic.   <br />
Thanks Amy!<br />
<br />
Would love to hear your comments and ideas on how to improve on it. <br />

  • Ami & Abhishek<br />
This is in response to comment from Kim (Mom4squirrels). <br />
Ami is my niece's daughter and her wedding was at a beautiful venue near Mumbai. <br />
This was shot minutes after the wedding ceremony. <br />

  • Ami - once again<br />
Ami at a ceremony on the day of her wedding. After shooting Ami from different angles I tried this different perspective. <br />
<br />
Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'.<br />

Suchit thanks for picking this one!<br />

  • Ami<br />
Morning of her wedding day, during a ceremony. The 'design' on her hands is from 'Mehendi' (paste of henna). I will put up some mehendi pics tomorrow!<br />

  • Anant Chaturdashi<br />
<br />
This is an idol of Lord Ganesha on an elephant (not real!). <br />
Unlike last year could shoot only for 45 minutes as had to go for a movie! Shot in Leica & Nikon D300 (17-55 mm). <br />
<br />
Started by freedom fighter Bal Gangadhar Tilak as an occasion to bring the masses together irrespective of class, against the British rulers, Ganeshotsav is the celebration of the Hindu elephant deity Lord Ganesha's visit to the homes of devotees.<br />
<br />
Ganesh Chaturthi is the first day of the 10- or 11-day festival where idols of the deity in various shapes, sizes and colours (often with news-based themes) are brought to the homes or colonies of devotees. On the final day (Anant Chaturdashi), the idols are carried by hand, balancing them on the head, pulled in hand carts or trucks, to be immersed in the nearest sea, river or lake.<br />
<br />
The process of taking the idols for immersion is marked with much fanfare -- loud music, resonating beats and dancing devotees bid adieu to Lord Ganesha only to welcome him again the next year with equal excitement.<br />

<br />
Would you believe this was my first trip there? Thanks to my friend Sharookh for taking me there. It's a BUSY place and so colorful you don't know what NOT to shoot! This was evening time when people are busy preparing to sail next day. Morning is when they return with the catch and is another sight all together. <br />
<br />
Am feeling better and have resumed work but may take a couple of days to be 100% fit. Thanks you all for your concern & wishes. <br />

The temple was originally built in 1780 and a tall spire was added in 1900. It's in the heart of the city on a small hill at about 1000 ft. above sea level. <br />

Sunday shot. Doing a test run on Leica Digilux 2. Lovely camera with crisp details and perfect natural colors. Shot in jpg and no PP except for a bit of a crop. <br />

Was a bit shocked to see the two ACs jutting out in the balconies!<br />

The original pic in my gallery had a part of another pilgrim's fabric visible on left. Assaf noticed it & his suggestion of cropping it has worked well.  Thanks Assaf!<br />

    I missed out completely on this picture until I read all about it; the dog on the left looks like it'd just been to the barber and the other two were ready to jump ship from a clothing boutique for the elete. Date juice? To each their own; I like mine in fig newtons...a cookee. Someday I can hopefully drive to India and you can take my wife and me to all of these fine places. Bill

    The dogs seem so happy and perky. They made me smile. Not all pics evoke an instant physical reaction like that. Good one.

    The dogs belonged to the owner who lived behind the shop!
