Tired of the current covid related travel restrictions and the winter weather here in Brittany, I took a leisurely amble amidst the shades, shrines and shadows of India; a little vicarious journey on Wordless Wednesday.













In response to a few questions, the locations shown are: Qutub Minar; Humayun’s Tomb; Safdarjung’s Tomb; Qadam-e-Rasool, Bhul Bhulaiya, Lucknow; Neemrana Palace; Fatehpur Sikri; Galta Temple; McLeod Ganj; Saint-Thomas Cathedral, Chennai; Golden Temple, Amritsar; near Tapan, West Bengal and Amer Fort. The header photograph is the view from Mukteshwar looking over the Kumaon Hills towards Nanda Devi.
Incredible India. Amazing photos❤️🤩
