Ahir tribal woman in Dhaneti village (Gujarat).

 

The Ahir are descendants of Lord Krishna. They lived as shepherds at Gokul Mathura about a thousand years ago. After leaving Gokul Mathura they spread throughout northern and northwestern India. There are four types of Ahir tribals namely Prantharia, Machhoya, Boureecha and Sorathia.

These communities are mainly of farmers who once sold milk and ghee but who now have changed their business to transport or salt because of the irregularity of rain. Their mother tongue is Gujarati. They worship Ramdevpir.

The engagement of an Ahir girl is formalized when the groom`s parents present a gift to the bride`s family. The Prantharia Ahirs give money. Machhoya and Boureecha give sets of clothes decorated with mirror work embroidery. The bride`s relatives also contribute at least one silver necklace, one or two gold necklaces, earrings, nose pins, anklets and bracelets.

The costume of an Ahir woman indicates her Jati and her age. Young women have the most elaborate costumes. Their gathered skirts of red, green, blue, orange or brown tied and dyed cotton are richly embroidered. Older married women must be content with plain black cotton tube shirts and simple decorated cotton or plain mashru blouses in subdued colours. Young and middle aged women wear Odhanis of red and block striped mashru with embroidered border.

The Jats who live in Kutch are particularly conscious of their identity as a group and their sense of unity comes from a perception of shared historical traditions and a belief in common ancestry.

Originally the Jats were herders who lived in an area called Half in Iran. Five hundred years ago these shepherds migrated from Half and came to Sindh and Kutch to search for new grazing lands. They crossed the Rann of Kutch and settled there taking up farming, they became known as Dhaneta Jats. Some have devted themselves to the study of the Koran and are known as the Fakirani Jats. All the Jats in Kutch are Muslims and have similar marriage and dowry customs.

 

The Dhanetas are the largest of the Jat Communities. They live throughtout north western Kutch. The Dhanetas live in the Banni, herd cattle. The men care for the animals and women remain in camp looking after their families.

Happy Independence Day to all my Indian friends !

According to UN-HABITAT, India is home to 63% of all slum dwellers in South Asia. It sounds a lot, but when you think about it, you may have seen homeless people everywhere in the "developed countries", such as Sydney, Tokyo, Hongkong, US, Canada...

Ahmedabad - Gujarat - India

 

Muslim to the mosque

 

Ahmedabad is the largest city and former capital of Gujarat. It is the administrative headquarters of the Ahmedabad district and the seat of the Gujarat High Court. With a population of more than 6.3 million and an extended population of 7.2 million, it is the sixth largest city and seventh largest metropolitan area of India. Ahmedabad is located on the banks of the Sabarmati River, 30 km from the state capital Gandhinagar.

 

Ahmedabad has emerged as an important economic and industrial hub in India. It is the second largest producer of cotton in India, and its stock exchange is the country's second oldest. The effects of liberalisation of the Indian economy have energized the city's economy towards tertiary sector activities like commerce, communication and construction.

Met de tuktuk rijden we naar de Shree Swami Narayan tempel en de Sidi Saiyyad moskee in het ochtendlicht. Een vriendelijk gezin liet zich fotograferen. We eindigen de dag aan de vrijdag moskee Jami Masjid met een heel grote binnenplaats en rondom een galerij, verder wandelen we naar het inmiddels verlichte Sidi Saiyyad moskee.

This baby Indian Cobra (Naja naja) was found just a couple houses down from this public playground. I set up this shot to illustrate how common snakes are in the city, and how little fear the locals have of them. The boy was completely safe. This cobra was only about 30 cm long, and the boy was about 7 meters away, but with my wide angle lens it looks much closer. In Pune, India

How to Shoot "Time Interval Single Frame"

 

I was trying “Time Interval Single Frame“ photograph for quite some time but never got satisfying results because of certain mistakes...So here what I learnt from my mistakes and finally achieved what I was looking for:

 

1. Decide how big Time Interval Single frame shot you want...According to that decide your start and end time..

2. Usually I love to shoot from daytime to Golden Hour to Blue Hour and Final Shot of Night...But if you want so you can start from morning too when you get Night-Blue-Golden and then Daytime...

3. Using of Tripod is compulsory because you want all shots from same angle. It helps in overlapping the shots in Photoshop.

4. Settings is not so Important.It depends on you how and what setting you want to use. Only thing you have to take care is that while changing exposure setting,do not change the aperture as it may affect Depth of Field. Change the shutter speed and since the camera is mounted on tripod work with lowest ISO.

5. Choose interesting subject and try to avoid shooting against Sunset-sunrise as it will turned your some shots into silhouette or may be you loose details on backlit shots...

6. After shooting your all Convert/Edit them the way you want. It is not necessary that editing settings are same for all the shots.

7. After Edit Open all your shots on Photoshop By Stacking or Automate>Photomerge (But Unclik "Blend Images Together" because you do not want to merge them right now .At this stage you just want the software put them on each other and align.)

8. Now after Aligning them on Layer place them on Time Sequence like you shoot...

9. Now select the part you want on final photo and press Ctrl+Shift+I then Delete Delete...Now Select 2nd Photo and again select portion you want on second frame and press Ctrl+Shift+I then Delete to remove other Deselcted Portion...Carry on the Method till your last Photo Layer..( Keep saving PSD and Edit them on Duplicate Layers so that you have already alligned Non Cropped Version)

10. In last just Merge your All layers and save them on JPEG/TIFF or Any Format you want....
