The people of India have been warm, welcoming and gracious hosts. They are also fabulous to photograph. Most people here do not own cameras, so when you take a photo of them and show them, they laugh at the sight of themselves. Even more than that, almost every photo shot is candid. People aren't trying to pose a certain way or make themselves look good for the camera. They don't know how. They just are who they are, and that is something really special to capture.
Enjoy these beautiful faces....
