A shot from the narrow streets of Pushkar city center. A bunch of women during the shopping among the small local shops.
A bunch of guys busy to "control" one of the many elephants during a Hindu festival. I just hope that these chains are temporary.
An alley near an Hindu temple, during a religious festival. The women of the town are cooking rice to offer to a God. A road certainly very fragrant.
This is the meeting between a Buddhist Monk and an old man ... maybe a friend, in a temple on the mountains of this beautiful Natural Park. I was captured by his contagious smile and serenity.
Shot taken among the ruins of Angkorwat. The different reactions of the monks after seeing the photographer... me.
Photo taken at the Golden Temple during the prayer of the monks. There was a large hall where about fifty monks recited prayers like songs; another group of monks in a small hall at about ten meters, instead playing a rhythmic and almost hypnotic music, very beautiful. It was like a concert by two different rooms.
"he shot me down,
Bang Bang
I hit the ground,
Bang Bang
That awful sound,
Bang Bang
my baby shot me down.."
Around the lake of Pushkar are used to live together a large number of animals.. including humans.. A coexistence mostly peaceful, respecting the sacredness of the lake that hosts them.
Bylakuppe is a small town two hours from Mysore, reserved for Tibetan refugees. These people fled China during the invasion of Tibet in 1959. Here live 10,000 Tibetans and more than 3000 are monks. The photo was taken near the Golden Temple, at the apartments of these monks.
