[Leica] Gypsy Land

Hi Jayanand,
A very lively set! As I have said before I really like how you engage with 
your subjects.
In this set I liked the tonality of the B&W photos very much. What process 
do you use?
Cheers
Howard

Last weekend went to photograph an area where Indian gypsies stay. You
might have seen a few of them in my photographs of temple festivals,
where they come and sell trinkets. This group has been assiduously
cultivated by one of our photo walk regulars by distributing prints,
so we were welcomed there by people who otherwise are, rightly, quite
suspicious by nature. As you can see, there were dozens of kittens
there, seemed to be the pet of choice - it must be a rat prone area! :
