"Tuc Tucs" - they take you anywhere but they don't smell very nice!

Fast traffic on the national highway

3.

Slow traffic - elephant or camel station with stairs up to platform

Pigeon Love Affair Part 1

5.

Pigeon Love Affair Part 2 - No wonder there are sooo many pigeons in Rajasthan!

Karni Mata Temple Deshnoke: Thousands of rats are worshipped here. The place is crowded with rats. The Plague, so the people say, has never broken out here.

7.

Monkeys at Akbar's Tomb in Sikandra: they were cheeky! :x

So far, so good!
I hope you like them.

Great shot, I really like the first two and the picture of the rat. Those three pic seem to have a lot of personality to me. Thanks for sharing.

Fascinating! I've never been to India, but with this series of pics you've posted, I get a sense of the sights. I'm always interested to see transportation modes in foreign places, so I'm glad it's part of your series. I also really like the bird/animal shots, especially 4, 6 and 7. #7 is so nicely composed, and the colours are so complimentary.

Great shots! I love the Monkeys

I watched a documentary on the rat place. It was DISGUSTING! They were everywhere and people shared food with them, etc.

Lyncca, all I saw were other photos taken in that palace, with ever so many rats feeding on a milk bowl, and those alone were disgusting enough for me, too ale: ! Even without "living, talking and moving" colours!

Bumped upon my sister's request - else she does not know how to find her threads again.
