India Trip, 2003


Album Cover This past June and July, I was in India (where I am originally from) ... got married, did a bit of travelling, and took a few pictures.

My wife and I went to Mussoorie for our honeymoon, which is located at a height of about 6500 ft and is known as the queen of hill stations in India.

We also travelled to a few places Rajasthan, including Jaipur, the state capital, to visit friends and relatives and Churu, a small desert town, to visit my ancestral home, where I’ve spent a few summer vacations during my schooling years.

My Photo Gear

Camera and Lenses

Mostly Canon stuff... specifically I use the Canon Digital Rebel XTi, along with a zoom lens, the Canon 75-300mm IS USM and a wider lens, the Canon 17-85mm IS USM as well as a few filters such as a circular polarizer and a tripod.

Software

Adobe Lightroom 2 for RAW image processing.
