It's a lovely photo. I have a nearly identical one of the same faces in my Indian Tiger folders. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/TIGER/DelhiPassW.jpg.html Have you got a photo of the fellow riding between the carriages? http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/TIGER/TweenCarsW.jpg.html Next time we go on a tiger shoot (and I sincerely hope there will be a next time) I will try to take photos in the railway stations and then you can take photos of the police harassing me!
