Jul 26 Dinner at the Oberoi Hotel

After exploring a bit we headed over to the Gate of India... Today’s Configuration: Leica M9 with a Noctilux 50mm f/.95 with an ND64 Filter. FujiFilm x100.

This was very neat to see... This is called mehendi. This skin decoration looks like a temporary tattoo and is used in celebrations and weddings. This one was just completed. This would peel off over night and leave a very intricate design on the skin.

More barriers...

The gate of India...

Guard with some serious firepower....

These two were in a very heated argument...

A vendor taking a rest...

Left turns are free...

Happy guards...

I love these cool little Hindustan Motors cars driven by India officials...

Zegna is even in India.... I love their suits and shirts...

After a little shopping we went to the Oberoi Hotel for dinner...

Danbo had a King Fisher...

Started off with a little wester appetizers...

...and some great wine.

We moved to India Food, or food as it is called here, for our main course. It was so good... I use to always have a hard to Indian Food. I think I caulked it up to consistency. I am just not to eating food this 'soupy'. Once I accepted that the consistency is just different I learn to really like Indian food. I went to dinner one night with an India friend of mine and he ordered one of just about everything and I tried a little of each and learn to really love India food.
