India Post #24

by Danny Fisher

As you may know, I’m back from India. I only recently got my black-and-whites developed, though, hence the title of this post.

Anyway, below are a few shots that I thought came out pretty well. A couple of them are a little dark, but I like them anyway.

Also, many thanks must go the Ven. Rinchen Gyatso for letting me use his scanner.
