Image Title: Early Morning Street Scene
Category: Indigenous Cultures
 
Technical Details: Nikon F4, 35mm f/1.4 lens, Fuji Provia 100 ASA film
Location: Jaisalmer, Western Rajasthan, India
Description: Every morning Harijans, or 'children of God' sweep and wash the ancient cobblestone streets of Jaisalmer, a 12th century citadel city. From across the desert, the impressive honey-colored sandstone fortress that dominates the horizon appears as a mirage, like a timeless scene from A Thousand and One Nights. Elaborate stone haveli mansions grace the inside of the fort as well as humble dwellings with brightly painted walls. This scene was photographed for the Daily Life' section of Hebberd's "Cultural Portraits of India" book and photo exhibition.
