India through a Holga

As I mentioned a few posts ago, I finally scanned my 15 rolls of Holga negatives that I've been hoarding for 2 years.  A good majority of these shots were of India.  I took my Holga to India in 2010 because I think the old technology compliments India so well, or vice versa.

These photos were taken over the course of my 6 months in India. They represent New Delhi (Hauz Khas, Lodhi Gardens, the Craft Museum, and random street scenes on my way to and from work), Ahmedabad, and Varanasi.

Happy Diwali

Wishing I was in India! Happy Diwali to everyone.

India Trip II; Part II

More photos from my last trip to India.

I was stopped by a passerby who said, "thank you" for taking this photo (I have no idea why):

I swear I'll be better

Today is my last day working two + jobs at work, so I'm promising to be better at keeping this blog updated. The bonus to taking on extra responsibilities at work (other than the paycheck) was that I got to return to India! Crazy. I only went back for 10 days, but I got a couple of days to myself (un-related to work).

So while I finish up my extra job, you can enjoy some images from India...





















India won the Cricket World Cup while we were there (they beat Sri Lanka). This photo is of kids playing cricket the day after this historic win:

Hi 2011, Oh wait, you've been around a while

So with this new year comes new changes. Or in my case, back to old ways. I'm back in the States and thus my blog suffers. My excuse is that I'm currently doing two jobs at work, and that means I'm putting in 10-14 hour days and I just don't feel like going on-line to post a blog entry.

Today, I finally edited my last shots from Delhi. Below are the best ones (or the most interesting). Enjoy!

Christmas in Delhi (at the mall, actually):





My flat in Delhi (the floor with all the plants):


My favorite meal in Delhi. Sundried cauliflower with garlic naan. Oh how I miss this meal!
