Udaipur - some pics of women!



There was an old festival (Gangaur) in Udaipur that's been 'grabbed' as part of a larger spring tourist 'Mewar' festival.  These are some pics from this year's Gangaur festival, where women carry on their heads a number of  freshly dressed, oversized 'dolls' of Parvati (Gauri) (and one of her spouse Shiva) down to one of the ghats for blessing (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gangaur).  Anyway, these are only a few of the pics I took, but these were all shot with my GoPro Hero2 from just one spot I got 'stuck' in at the water's edge on the ghat.
