Jaisalmer, dawn

Early morning traffic, JaisalmerJanuary 2007. During the day and late into the night, Jaisalmer's archetypal India: crowded, noisy, jostling, intense. But early in the morning, as the shops have just begun to open and the tourists are (mostly) still recovering, there's an almost eerie quiet which an occasional motorcycle accentuates rather than destroys.

Wonderful - the light, the colours, the textures....and the motorcyclist carefully weaving around the cow!
