Wedding procession in Pushkar

By sawsengee  
Wedding processions in Pushkar captured in spectacular colours & vivid attire.
The lead image shows Rajasthani women in their finest attire & jewelleries proceeding to the abode of the bride to be .
The second image shows women in their finest attire carrying jars & offerings on their heads leading to the local temple for blessings.
The third image shows elderly women giving counsels to the younger generations.....I had the chance of being "invited" to their
"private" meeting away from the public eye & I had the approval of the matriarch of taking their pictures. I felt so priviledged & fulfilling
thereafter.
Namaste. Smile
