With each day that has passed since I hit that 'purchase' button, I have been scared and excited in equal measure. Your blog has really put my mind at rest, while the excitement remains. It looks like it's been a while since you were last in India but I hope you are still travelling. I may come back to you with a question or two as my trip draws nearer. Mainly about managing technology - phones etc. Thanks for a great read.

O...Hi Ariane, thanks for reading, and the comments. On this trip last year I took a Canon sx20 bridge camera, a great all round camera (although I have since upgraded to a canon 600d) some of the photos have been processed with snapseed with various effects. India and it's people are so photogenic anyway, the main thing is be at the right place at the right time. As I travelled solo, i was able to spend more time watching and observing what was happening around me, and able to capture interesting moments. Good luck with your trip, I'm sure you'll love it. If you have any more questions I will do my best to help :)williamhart001@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965754517265930654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108193420158029276.post-62212640903020350772013-09-23T13:37:52.949-07:002013-09-23T13:37:52.949-07:00Thank you so much for this article.

I wish mine were half as good. Can I ask if you use a specific type of material or technique? Perhaps you should have a photo blog too ;-)Arianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15400825721679653849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108193420158029276.post-55354980073987180642013-05-06T06:08:08.590-07:002013-05-06T06:08:08.590-07:00All the pics looked great..

The photos in the building run though Gandhi's life. Very interesting. williamhart001@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965754517265930654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108193420158029276.post-18981686585932707052013-04-08T12:10:34.490-07:002013-04-08T12:10:34.490-07:00I didnt want to read your blog and run with out wr...I didnt want to read your blog and run with out writing a comment.<br />One of the best blogs i have read.The pictures were amazing and i could feel how much you fell in love with India,like most people do.<br />I didnt read if you went to Mahatma Gandhi memorial in Delhi.I hope you did as that is well worth seeing.<br />Off to read your 2nd blog now.<br />Thanks very much for taking the time to write it all down.<br />Pat.Pat.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07424400056955053090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108193420158029276.post-60287199787632617882013-02-08T06:22:36.175-08:002013-02-08T06:22:36.175-08:00Thanks for reading Hari, glad you enjoyed it!Thanks for reading Hari, glad you enjoyed it!williamhart001@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965754517265930654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108193420158029276.post-64798767043251461142013-02-07T19:57:32.879-08:002013-02-07T19:57:32.879-08:00Excellent blog!

Hotels I pre-booked before arrival and varied from £6 a night to £25 a night.<br />Clothes etc are very cheap out there so pack light and buy in India.<br />Hope this helps.<br /><br />Willwilliamhart001@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965754517265930654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108193420158029276.post-61686988165179691692013-01-15T17:45:05.234-08:002013-01-15T17:45:05.234-08:00Hi Will !
