Another day at the Kolyat Mela in Rajasthan.  It was a thoroughly enjoyable day with lots of interactions with the visitors to the fair. 

This is not my best photograph of the day, but it is probably the best at illustrating the wonderfully friendly and welcoming attitude of the people to me as a Westerner with a camera. I was setting up to photograph the group of people at the back (at their request) when this woman leapt in and spread her arms, to the amusement of the others. 

Throughout the day I found people very happy to stop and talk, to practise their English on me and to be photographed. It proved to be a long and intensive day, but with many great images at the end of it.
