“Take Photo!”
It is fortunate indeed when people actually ask you to take their photograph.
Even better when they adopt an unselfconscious pose and flash a brilliant gleaming smile.
My friends had decided to take the tour of the wonderful if sometimes rather vulgar Mysore Palace which is a strange mixture of Indo-Saracenic and Edwardian extravagance, and as I had already experienced its delights, I took a stroll around the gardens searching out photogenic subject matter……..
Life, Photography & Other Mistakes - is now dormant 
That’s India for you….😃
Oh yes! ….and Mysore is a very pleasant town to visit.
Very nice capture.
It’s almost embarrassing when they approach you for a photo but it puts the shoe on the other foot and saves me asking them.
Excellent!!
Thanks again LB for your continuing encouragement.
Wonderful! And, so true: Indians will actually call out to friendly-looking strangers with a camera and ask for their picture to be taken, Quite a change over just a few years back…
Thanks Alessandro. Most of the time it works to the advantage of both, though it can be distracting when you ‘have your eye in’.
