Driving through Delhi

Phew!  The last few weeks I have been traveling like a crazy person - Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi - and my poor little camera has been used for work purposes only.  Today we were stuck in traffic (and more traffic and more traffic) so I took the opportunity to snap a few shots out the window.  I just love India.  Is Delhi my favorite? No.  But I love that life is so vibrant.  Even amidst the traffic.

Happy Independence Day

I got a new camera, and I had a day off.  What better way to celebrate Independence Day than by exploring my favorite area with my new toy?  Pottery Town never fails to make me smile.  All I need to do is walk through and the lights, life, and artisans at work wake me up and brighten my day.  I also quickly learned that a white girl with a large-lensed camera will attract a bit of attention!  Along with many photos of precious children, I also went home with two women when they invited me for coffee (Oh the things you do in India that you don't ever do elsewhere - don't worry, I'm safe Mom!).  Here is my favorite photo of the day - happy Independence Day, India!  This is your future.
