I would be keen on finding out out what fun stuff you get to do next..

Hindu vs. Sikh and what this means.. i.e. colors sometimes mean something to them..women marry in red in Hinduism, noting their red for the clinic day seems significant.. multi colored turbans are simply fashion. Also, the value, design of saris tells a region of India.<br />many you depict I can tell are VERY poor, however very colorful..Have you noticed how they, the nylon saris, hold the smell? not so great!<br />enjoy!! and Thank You!DebiColehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17498493560483115939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694662526604201336.post-1530400525694315842011-11-10T13:41:28.145-08:002011-11-10T13:41:28.145-08:00I am guessing that these people speak English (sin...I am guessing that these people speak English (since you are able to hear their stories)?

Has we given you any tips on your photography! Keep posting comments,<br />Rohan<br /><br />Andrew,<br />I talked to my parents about buying local garments but they did not seem so keen about the idea. I think they think it is just extra stuff in our bags for the month. <br /><br />Cheers all,<br />Rohanrohan geographichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09429588233816362837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694662526604201336.post-51690117430714181622011-11-09T17:56:20.826-08:002011-11-09T17:56:20.826-08:00Fabulous colors!Fabulous colors!Chopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16472869015799925448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694662526604201336.post-64198899829489199012011-11-09T16:30:54.114-08:002011-11-09T16:30:54.114-08:00Cool Rohan!

I agree that photos should never be enhanced to look better than they are. The camera, however, often doesn't capture what the human eye sees and the ability to increase light in dark areas and make the colors appear as they were is a blast. I am an amature, however, although my brother is a very famous photographer (Jock Sturges) and I taught him all he knows. Just kidding! cheers rohan peterOTTER BAR LODGE KAYAK SCHOOLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961489175363986701noreply@blogger.com
