| India: Soulmates all, Pushkar |


Heard the bit about soulmates resembling each other over time? I found the resemblance between the camels and their minder quite uncanny. |
I must admit that these were the most well behaved camels I came across at the Pushkar Camel Fair. Not only did they line themselves up for this shot (no, the gentleman in the front is NOT a camel), but they patiently stood by while I made several images of them and their minder. I was rather wary of the character in the middle - he did seem to be taking a rather inordinate interest in my camera. With his mouth, no less. Yes, I AM refering to the camel! |
Last seen, the camel in the middle was trying to rip the minder's wig right off his scalp. Unfortunately it wasn't a wig... so much for well mannered camels! |
