Description
It's been two months now since I last posted a photo and time has been flying by without me even noticing it. I am sorry for missing whatever superb works have been uploaded by my friends over here so far, but this is a definitely and sadly enough hectic year for me,
jobwise...However, in the course of those busy cold and dull days of winter I was lucky to spend a fortnight in what is a giant developing country now steadily catching up on its more developed partners. I had quite a culture shock with India and its chaotic hustle and bustle, its gigantic capital city, but found solace and immense emotions in the smiles and peace of mind of the Indians, and even cool sensations in the smaller cities and villages of Rajasthan, where the people make time to make you feel comfortable. I took more than 2,000 photos there but I promise I won't bother you with more than three or four of them !... This Indian mother and her daughters are standing here before Humayun's mausoleum in Delhi, a mausoleum commissioned by the wife of the deceased second emperor(1508-1558) of the Mughals who ruled over Northern India at the time. Humayun's tomb is said to be the architectural source of inspiration for another worldwide tomb and monument, the Taj Mahal, commissioned by the third Mughal Emperor, Shah Jahan, for his beloved Muntaz Mahal...If you feel like listening to a moody and beautiful Indian music track that, to me , sets the mood of this photo, just click here!
Thank you very much for your comments on my last pic. Have a nice weekend and take it easy! Zoom in, and namaste :-)

It must have been quite an experience visiting this distant land and getting to learn about the culture.

I'm sad to hear that it hasn't been the greatest time for you, my Friend... but on the bright side you had such a tremendous experience in Rajasthan.. I think just being there must have been eye-opening. It excites me just at the thought of traveling abroad and actually being able to experience that "culture shock". It could definitely be an awakening experience. These ladies look quite happy and I'm glad to hear that people that you encountered actually took the time to make you feel welcome and at home, to some degree. Our world is so vast, and its wonderful to hear about your experience. I hope things settle down for you, and I really can't wait to see your images. I'm going to scold you in fact, and say that 3 or 4 is not enough! :) Such a fantastic experience, you must certainly share it! :) Have a beautiful weekend my Friend, and glad to see you're back with yet another superb post!

Superb photo! I hope you post more then 3 or 4 of your photos from India, a country I will probably never see myself. I think that seeing it through your eyes, your camera's eye, will be almost as good as visiting, so please .. don't stop at just 3 or 4,
