A wedding couple and their family, Madurai
ttalbum > albums > South India (Tamil Nadu)
Album Info:
Its interesting to follow how different people are in different countries. In Bolivia people wouldn't let you take photos of them unless you pay, in Indonesia I was asked quite often by locals to pose for a photo with them and in India people approached me on many occasions and asked to take pictures of them. In case with this photo, I was taking pictures of the Madurai temple in the evening when I saw a wedding procession coming out from the temple so I decided to take a picture or two. I didn't ask for anything but the groom stopped and asked all the guests to pose with them for my photo. After I took a few photos of the wedding couple, I ended up surrounded by 30 or maybe 40 guests who wanted me to take separate photos of them with their family members, friends, etc. I spent about 20mins just taking and showing pictures of those interested.
