Daily photos 3rd year

At the Daily Gallery one picture, preferably taken that day; is shared with others. While that is difficult to follow (shooting everyday) I have been putting up a picture everyday and this is my THIRD year. It's been an enjoyable time viewing pictures of other members and learning new techniques and customs from different places. I think this is the best way to travel to places while sitting at home, and also making friends on the way! It has been a pleasure sharing my pictures and I thank all of you for taking the time to comment on my pictures. Earlier galleries: First year - Second year - Critiques welcome!

Won't be able to comment on pictures but will ask son Jay to put up new ones. Cheers till then! <br /> <br /> The annual Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon took place on Sunday, 16th January 2011. The main race categories were Full Marathon (42.195 km), Half Marathon (21.097 km) & Dream Run (6 km). I was to accompany daughter Vinati but due to chest congestion could not attend. The few shots are from round the corner from my house showing Half Marathon participants on their way back.

  • 3rd year Pic 135 - Jan 17 2011<br /> Aamir Khan, Actor<br /> <br /> Times Good Food Guide Awards 2011<br /> <br /> Added: John, my cousin who owns a popular restaurant has been receiving awards for last 8 years and that's why we manage to go there for the awards ceremony. The awards are organised by the leading newspaper Times of India and they rope-in celebrities to hand over the awards. Till last time I could move around and take 'proper' pictures but sadly they have stopped it so this time I took my P&S and managed to get some shots. I guess the diminutive P&Ss have an advantage in such places! :) <br /> <br /> <br /> Best seen in XLarge size

  • 3rd year Pic 128 - Jan 10 2011<br /> Ladies in waiting... <br /> Kamathipura, Mumbai<br /> <br /> Shot 'blind' with camera at waist level.<br /> <br /> Kamathipura is Mumbai's oldest & the world's largest red-light district. The area was set up by the British for their troops, which acted as their official "comfort zone". This small region boasted the most exotic consorts. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, a large number of women and girls from continental Europe and Japan were trafficked into Kamathipura, where they worked as prostitutes servicing both British soldiers and local Indian men. When the British left India, the Indian sex workers took over. In recent decades, large numbers of Nepalese women and girls have also been trafficked into the district as sex workers. Today, it is said that there are so many brothels in the area, that there is no space for the sex workers to sit in. They hang around in the streets, solicit customers and then rent an available bed.<br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamathipura">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamathipura</a><br /> <br /> 11th Jan: The woman in foreground is wearing a 'bajuband' - arm bracelet worn traditionally in west & north. Now it's used mainly for special <br /> occasions like weddings & festivals.
