where jesus saves in chennai india 

On the road from Mysore to Kerala in the South of India I grabbed this photo as we speed by. A tractor just coming into frame from the left has a bright red and yellow engine housing which contrasts well with the lush green vegetation.
This man is selling onions and garlic in the Devaraja Market in Mysore, South India. It is a very popular place for photographers and the vendors are well used to being asked to pose.
In the Devaraja Market in Mysore, South India. These two men are flower sellers and sit beside a large pile of yellow flowers. Just behind them a man in a wine shirt sucks hard on a cigarette so that his cheeks sucked in with the effort.
While walking on the beach in Chennai I was joined by four young boys. They lived with their families in shacks on the beach; while their English was not fluent we could communicate. They got me to run with them and as we did I got this photo, the late afternoon sun casting long shadows of their legs and feet on the red sand.
Chennai (Madras) is famous for its temple in Mylapore, but this is a detail of it not often seen … all the exterior walls and the walls surrounding the nearby pond are painted with these red stripes. The stripes are uneven and marked with scratching and graffiti.
Trains are so important in India. This shot by Niall O Cleirigh is taken from a train having left Chennai an hour or so and simply shows the blurred tracks in the countryside in the fading light of dusk as the train gets stuck in to a twenty four hour journey from the east to the west coast.
I made it to Goa. In this photo there are two empty wooden loungers on a beach under a palm leaf and bamboo sunshade. The sky is white here in Candolin there is nearly always cloud and mist and the sun is always enveloped in it before it makes it to the horizon so it is rare to see a sunset.
This is “ms malinks” a beautiful dog who would often join us on the beach for a walk; we enjoyed each other’s company. She is sporting a red collar. Dogs run wild in Goa and it is said that from time to time they are culled, a fellow tourist put this red collar on “ms malinks” in the hope that it would save her.
This pic taken on the steps on Chamundi Hill, Mysore, India . On certain days you will see people making a pilgrimage up Chumundi Hill and placing the red and orange power dots on the corner of each of the 1008 steps and prostrating before each one.  In the pic a girl is descending in a white dress with red trim which echo’s the powder decoration on the steps.
