Years ago I came upon this scene at the Pushkar Camel Fair. This is before my becoming a professional photographer. I was working on a tour of India and by this time (1968) I only shot a few photos, as that was all the film I could afford. To this day, this day this image still takes my breath away at the timeless pageant before me. It is still the same response of deep wonder and gratitude for being a witness to such grandeur.

Riki, Thanks for sharing this amazing photo the other night. I loved seeing it on the big screen especially as I often long to return to India… and I will.
Happy Halloween, Penny
