India is such a beautiful place – with so many things to see and discover.  As we were most of the time riding the bus going around – it was difficult to take nice photos especially since I did not have my SLR.  There were so many moments I wanted to capture but I could not.  But my camera was still overworked!  I could not put it down even for a single moment because there were just too many beautiful things to capture!  I was able to get a few and I am sharing them here at H2H

They use CNG

Raj told us that when two guys are holding hands, it does not mean they are in a relationship.  They could be just close friends.  That’s how it is in India

There were many moments like this during the road trips- just could not capture it because the bus was moving too fast. Many interesting people and colorful outfits by the ladies!

One of the gods that they worship

There were quite a number of places like this, where there was trash just there on the streets

With a zoom lens I would have probably also taken more shots.  Sometimes they ask for money even if you just take their photo.  Like this woman cleaning the garden in one of the palaces. I guess some will try to make money if they could

I just turned around and caught this shot!  One of my favorites!

    Hi H2H,

    I am a regular reader of your blog and I so love it. So simple and yet very interesting.., i think the last time i post a comment was about your trip in Vancouver… anyways, thanks for sharing and capturing the real India. Been to that country several times but on business, so no time to go around. I’d like to go back someday…

    Thanks again for sharing places, food and your beautiful family! Merry Christmas

    Thank you Melit for your note. I love receiving messages like yours. Thank you for viewing H2H. God bless!!! India is beautiful contrary to what others say. And as my friend Paul says, you have to go to India with an open mind. For me, I had no expectations and I loved learning about their culture. Who are we to say that we are superior over anyone? Each one has their ways and we should respect that 🙂
