Pushkar Camel Trader

A camel trader at Pushkar camel fair looks disapprovingly at the bargain going on in the neighbouring tent. Early mornings and evenings are the busiest time at the fair, where annually more than a hundred thousand camels and equal number of other cattle change hands. Morning is occuppied by cleaning, cooking, grooming and preparing the camel. Bidding activities start early and goes on till sunset. The fair ground gets busy once again, cooking, cleaning, gossiping and preparing for the night, spent in the open, not always under even a tent.
