Street scenes #1

2009.07.26


The contraption you see in #2 is a water-cart. You won't find this anywhere else in India. For 1 ruppee, the man will pump out a glass of cold water for you. For another ruppee, he'll add a generous squeeze of fresh lime to it. Perfect on a hot day.

iguana Great idea. Better than adding to the mountain of plastic water bottles.

ShangriLa I am always happy to have my shoes fixed in India. Much easier than at home when you really have no choice but to throw them out.

SoulCurry Yes, Iggy, except that the level of hygiene is sometimes suspect. So, drinking water from a cart might be an invitation to disaster!

Funny thing, Shangri-La, why people in many countries don't have places to fix stuff like shoes & umbrellas & clothes which don't fit..

iguana Really? Ah, that's a shame.

sydneylizzie These are absolutely wonderful shots, especially #1. National Geographic would give their eye-teeth for such lovely candid street shots.
