India is a country of sensory overload: warm colors, haze and wood-smoke filled streets, horn beeps and wandering cows, mounds of flowers offered to the gods, and the smell of spices permeating the air.
Most dominant are the colors. They are everywhere, brightening life in all its forms. So . . . as a (mostly) black-and-white photographer, I was truly in a foreign land.
As with all forms of inspiration, it is best to seek the essence—to find the soul of your journey. And, so I did. Seeing the colors of India in my own way.
For a journey full of colors, visit OIC Moments.
