Wide Eyed in India: Part V
- Monday -
Today was a day off of sorts.
We got invited to the victory luncheon for a local politician that happened to be a relative of the owner of the building we were staying in. Incredibly strange.... Or maybe that's just because I don't speak Telegu....
To be honest, I was terrified that they'd ask me to say something, thankfully they only asked me to take a few photos.
The afternoon was lost to quiet thought, recharging for the days to come...
Afternoon bled into chalky dusk, and I began to grow restless once more.
Sensing my anxiousness, Stevens and Suresh took me out onto the Guntur streets for a evening of exploring & street photography. India is quite possibly the best country on earth for street photography, and particularly in the somewhat less traveled south. Almost without exception, people were more than happy to have their photo taken. Just wish I could've had prints to give to them! Thankfully, Fuji's been working on a solution to that issue.
(More on that later).
