View more photos of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway.

 

The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, locally known as the "Toy Train", is a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge railway that runs between New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling (India). It is still operated by vintage British-built B Class steam locomotives. Operations between Siliguri and Kurseong have been temporarily suspended since 2010 following a Landslide at Tindharia (view photos of the landslide).

 

For more info about the DHR steam locomotives, read en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHR_778_(locomotive) and www.irfca.org/docs/locolists/dhr-locos-full.html.

The houses of this old village are built with stone and mud. The streets (only for pedestrians and cows) are narrow and convoluted, like a maze, and sometimes you just don't know if you are still on a street or in a private house.

 

The street level of the houses are for the animals (cows, goats). Houses are very few windows, to keep them warmer in the winter time.

 

Stairs are often made of a single tree trunk hollowed-out with carved steps, like on this photo.

One of the very kitch Hindu God sculptures at the ISKCON (Hare Krishna) Ashram at Kumbh Mela 2013. The purple deity is Krishna in His four-handed (Vishnu) form.

 

This is Laxmi-Narayana, Krishna in his four-armed form as Lord Vishnu with Laxmi Devi, laying on Ananta Sesha, with Lord Brahma having emerged from the lotus flower from his navel.

 

Those metal sculptures were mechanically animated, like low-tech animatronics.

Country veterinarian spays a female piglet - 9 of 13 - vietnam

 

Spaying is a common and simple surgical operation to remove or disable a female animal’s ovaries.

 

Here the operation takes place in the village's pig market. The screaming piglet is attached up-side down on a piece of wood. The veterinarian performs a small incision that does not cause any bleeding (he must have done that operation very often and knows exactly where to cut). Then he inserts his bare fingers (no gloves, no scrubbing) in the piglet's belly through the incision to find the ovaries. Hopefully the animal has a good immune system! The ovaries are extracted, ligatured and put back inside, then the incision is stitched. Of course no anesthetic is used, so the piglet was very vocal during the entire operation that lasted no more than 5 minutes. After the operation the piglet seemed totally exhausted and suddenly very quite, after oinking very loudly during the whole ordeal.

 

See the other photos of the piglet spaying operation.

Mountains landscape view from a ridge above the Auli ski resort near Joshimath (India)

 

I hiked to that ridge (elevation of 3,500 m - 11,500 ft). and got an amazing panoramic view of the high mountains all around, and patches of snow on the pastures.

 

I did the first part of the hike with a group of nice Russian bikers that I met in Joshimath, but they gave up before the top, so I did the rest of the hike solo.

Fire Motorcycle at the Kumbh Mela 2013 festival near Allahabad (India).

 

The Indian Fire Department at Kumbh Mela had several of those Royal Enfield Bullet 350cc motorcycles equipped with up to 4 fire extinguishers and an oxygen tank.

Crew rebuilding the Man for the scheduled burn, after it was destroyed by arson 4 days early

 

Found this interesting news clip:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Black Rock City (AP) - After the early torching of the Burning Man festival signature figure by an arsonist, the Burning Man Organization decided that all future copies of the "Man" would be made in China and shipped to Nevada.

 

"We already purchase all our fireworks from China", said Larry Harvey, one of the co-founders of the Burning Man festival. "So it made sense to outsource the Man too."

 

"Chinese-built copies of the 40-foot tall Man will cost us about 10 times less than domestic copies, and this will save us a lot of green stuff", Harvey explained, referring to this year’s "Green Man" theme.

 

"The Chinese Man will be 100% identical to the domestic version, very combustible and based on the same original blueprints from my good friend John Law. We don't expect any lead poisoning problems", Harvey added.

 

There has been rumors that the significant cost saving will permit the festival organization to burn a copy of the Man every night of the week, which some see as environmentally questionable as well as a disguised way to prevent any future early torching of the figure.

 

The first batch of Chinese-made Man is expected to ship early august 2008, and there are currently no plans to make Chinese copies available to the general public, although this is being discussed in the organization.
