         		 “Smiles are universal”. Like the vibrant scenes that first greeted me in the city market, I found that the people themselves are just as dynamic and colorful. Despite the hardships that so many of them obviously faced in making a living, the people of southern India are some of the richest I’ve met in terms of their happiness and welcoming attitudes. Smiles abounded there was no hint of fakeness about them. Makes you step back and think about what true happiness is and how little of a role money and material possessions play a role in that.: by jbatryn, Views[563]
         		 “Eager to share”. While wandering through the shop-lined streets in Saraguru, we stopped to ask some of the shopkeepers if we could take pictures of their colorful shops. The language barrier was overcome with gestures and smiles, and when they saw that we were interested in their shops and their work, they were more than happy to open up to us and share about their livelihoods. They proudly showed their large piles of cotton outside and then motioned for us to follow them to another building where they had a large pile of lentil-like grain, which they again proudly showcased. So much can be said sometimes without understanding a single word.: by jbatryn, Views[678]
         		 “Cotton a trap”. Cotton is grown near the village of Saraguru and it is fairly common to see trucks overloaded with large bags of cotton passing through the streets. Cotton is a very labor intensive crop and one of the local men said that many parents do not want their children to continue in farming. Instead, the children are encouraged to become doctors or engineers, where they can enjoy an easier life. Partly due to this, more and more people are moving away from the rural areas and farm owners are finding it increasingly harder to find labor to help run the farms.: by jbatryn, Views[812]
     
    “Family business”. This shopkeeper tidies bowls filled with colorful kum kum powder in his family business. Many of the small shops like this are passed down from one generation to the next and many of the shopkeepers seem to enjoy talking and interacting with others in the busy market. One young shopkeeper proudly showed us his personal “facebook” – a tired notebook with pictures and short messages written by travelers from all over the world who stopped by his stand over the years. A nice reminder that curiosity about other cultures and the world around us is a universal feeling.: by jbatryn, Views[1828]
         		 “Sensory Overload”. One of the first things I noticed when I arrived in India was how bombarded my senses were with so many colors, new sights and smells, a constant soundtrack of car horns, people talking and even cows, and of course such a wide variety of fresh produce and foods to taste at the numerous markets around. This scene in Mysore’s Devaraja market captures a small piece of that commotion – the colorful displays of fruit, curious faces and so many little things that demand your attention.: by jbatryn, Views[790]
         		 The giant wheel depicts the cycle of life revolving between the dawn and dusk.: by pranita, Views[429]

         		 Two friends enjoy an evening of tall tales and drinks at a Bangalore house party: by jeremy, Views[356]
         		 This is when I feel most uneasy with the stark contradictions that reside in me-the obscene high rise buildings and the uncountable slums staring at them, in a curious mix of disbelief and humiliation. I am Mumbai. : by debashish, Views[310]
         		 A happy family having tea and talking about their brighter future.: by dreamsexploresdiscovers, Views[341]
         		 Intruders out! Sweeping the yard and kicking a homeless mother-dog and her puppy: by dreamsexploresdiscovers, Views[389]

         		 The entry of the master of our solar system is a spectacular opening gala with the sky spreading its red carpet for the entry.: by pranita, Views[467]
     
    Our life always revolves around the rising and the setting sun. This natural phenomenon is most important for our survival. Every day begins with a new hope and every sunset creates new history. The flying jet and the pilot in this photograph resemble as if they are saluting the rising sun.: by pranita, Views[475]
         		 The sky gives its teary eyed farewell to its trusted companion of ages with a fine display of colours from its infinite palette.: by pranita, Views[355]
         		 This photo exemplifies an important problem in modern India – too many people, too little work. Under such conditions, workload is shared. Seeing this, I thought to myself – this is how the pyramids were built.: by faces, Views[834]
         		 These guys had the strangest selling strategy, sitting on a wall 3 meters above the ground where nobody could approach them. I was observing what would happen during half an hour – eventually I left, whereas they stayed assuming same positions.: by faces, Views[842]
         		 During the day, ghats along the river Ganges are filled with thousands of people, creating chaos that saturates the senses. I liked where this guy found his safe haven... to relax and read the newspapers. : by faces, Views[840]
