Faces in India; Udaipur

 

Locals are proud of their appearance and many like having their photos taken. Some men take particular pride in there moustaches.

In the case of individuals, we always ask before taking their photo, and many of the children do wish to see their photo.

We were charmed by our accommodation in Udaipur. Even the shy hummingbirds like it! This is where we celebrated the Holi Festival.

A Persian wheel is still used to lift water in remote rural areas. The local indigenous cattle are "long horns"!

 

“There was a drowsy buzz of small life in hot sunshine, a cooing of doves, and a sleepy drone of well-wheels across the fields.”

Excerpt From: Kipling, Rudyard. “Kim.” iBooks.
