Some "new" Faces of India



It has been quite some time since I have made an entry in the blog.....



Not due to a lack of material......India is never at a lack for the amazing or magnificent.



I can attribute part of it to being extremely busy.........work does that to you at times......I am sure that everyone can relate.



Perhaps it can be attributed to a small amount of "writer's block".....yes, I started an entry ......I wrote the entry three times......only to abandon it.....perhaps never to be published......



So what inspired me to post something today.....perhaps it was the full moon......maybe the springtime feel in the air........perhaps the visit to the Mughal Gardens, which opens only one time each year......why only once per year......because it is on the grounds of the President's Palace(the equivalent of the White House in Washington, D.C.).....and it was absolutely beautiful.



To gain entry, you have to surrender everything.......no camera's, no cell phones, no purses, nothing electronic (not even keys with remote entry)......very tight security.



Because I was unable to take pictures, I started looking at some I had recently taken and realized that I had not shared them.......



So, enjoy some of the recent "Faces"......taken in the old city of Jaipur.

Wow beautiful portraits. Reminds me of my time spent in India and brings back memories of smiling faces. Actually I took a few portraits while there too if you want to check them out http://matthieu.net/photography
