My India.

There is an India that is often unseen to the everyday tourists. Away from the hustle and bustle of smog filled cities, there lies an India that fosters a sense of tranquility that enlightened Siddartha Gautama, allowing him to become the Buddha. These images capture a personal pilgrimage through India and the beauty of the people, culture and land. Seen through the eyes of a stranger, a buddhist and the lens of a voigtlander.
