Bangle Shop Boy
The ubiquitous shop children, guilting you shyly into purchases. I really like this kid's look and how the color of his shirt fit in with the rest of the wares within the bangle shop but he was too shy for me to take a proper portrait.
When he got involved watching the heat of the bargaining between Jim and the shopkeep I snapped this no-look shot off my hip. I really like the way it turned out, if nothing but for the natural quality of his posture and how he fits in his environment.

The moment I saw this pic, I knew this had to be Hyderabad's 'chudi bazaar' (bangle market). My doubts were confirmed when I saw the previous pic.
I am from Hyd too, but I currently stay in Bombay.

Lara: India seems to be the land of great expressions; thanks for your constant patronage. It means a lot!
Zishaan: a Hyderabadi! Man, Hyd is a great town! I would go back in a second. Definately my best day-to-day eating experience I've ever had. The Biriyani cannot be beat, eh?
I didn't get to go beyond the Mumbai airport this last trip; but I've got plenty a foreigner's perspective on Hyd and Karnataka coming up.
I just started looking at the pics in your gallery. Absolutely fantastic!

Sure looks like a random shot, has that feel. Nice commentary to go with it.

Nice shot! The look on his face is wonderful, and I love the background of all those colorful bangles...
