India Exposed by Clive Limpkin - Sunset in Narlai, Rajasthan
India Exposed – A photo gallery
India is serenity, beauty, calmness. India is noise, pollution, crowds. India is irony, humor, drama. India is sharp contrasts, extreme wealth and extreme poverty.
India is a billion people and you get to see many facets of their lives in Clive Limpkin’s book,’India Exposed: The Subcontinent A-Z’ (Abbeyville Press)
All photos in this gallery are by Clive Limpkin. He is embarking on another trip to India in 2010 and wants to hear from readers with comments and suggestions – info@clivelimpkin.com

Kriti – you’re so right. This feature is two years old but is evergreen – the photos are there, waiting to involve the next person who comes along.
Pepsi flavored hookahs, sadhus and machinery, barber shops and village women – India is all this and more.

Sulekha, what an insightful comment – I never thought of it that way! It’s so true though. I think I really would like to initiate a photography contest so we could share varied images of India, as our readers see it.
