For some reason, I find this pic quite interesting... maybe the shades, maybe the lighting... there are much better pictures in your collection, but I am quite happy with this one.

And yes... * * * * *

Thanks buddy. Have taken this from a moving boat on the Pichola. Glad you liked it. By the way, the dhow costs 10K an hour...or so I am told and is only available if you book a room at the Lake Palace.

Guess this must be one of the earliest accidents...this was put up in our room at Rampratap Haveli

lol. That's a great picture of the accident? Where they insured? Did A.S.S. spring in to their rescue? how was it in olden days?

Yeah...it looks like it has been banged by an elephant from the other side. Most of these cars must have been imported so I guess A.S.S must have been minimal!!. Also, I am guessing that this is in front of the Rampratap haveli. It looks similar to the current facade.

Thanks Sri, the sunsets in Rajasthan are very diiferent from what we have experienced in konkan, Goa, Karwar and even the north....the hues, the clouds and even the shades of the sun itself!

early morning snaps are great. You have minimal people and the right amount of sunlight!

ampere · 12th April 2010, 15:03

Snaps look very nice. But where is the story?
Lost in translation?
