The blue city of Jodhpur, stands as a visual marvel in Rajasthan's arid desert. In the wind, one can hear the several eloquent pleas from the city's many mosques. Kristian Bertel took the picture of this young woman at Fatehpur Sikri.
Dressed in a yellow sari, she glances inquisitive with a tone of grace.

Beggar boy at Rajiv Chowk, Connaught Place, with a look that may show a skepticism about what is going on. In the rough streets of Delhi the chaos rules. In every neighborhood,
in every alley, we see the daily and rushing activity.
No one knows how the day will end.

Poverty is one of the conditions of life in India. This wrinkled man submissively trying to beg a few rupees from the neverending
passing people.
I remember the image of this distinctive woman at Nawab Ganj, Delhi.
She is followed by a child at her side. I think there is a seriousness
in the caption of this image.

A man taking a nap in the streets of Old Delhi. With working hours up to 18 hours a day, a nap is well needed. Indian fashion varies from one village to another village, from one city
to another city. India's fashion heritage is rich in tradition, vibrant
in colors and prepossessing. This woman is wearing a sari.

Transportation of things is often carried on top of the head.
To the foreign traveler, one of the powerful attractions in India
is the colorful and diversified attire of its people.
