INDIA

India has always been a dream of mine to explore. I have already made my first trip to India, but I need at least two more to capture India in the way that a photographer should in order to share the experience on something used as a website that I have here. The people and the culture fit in with what I have heard in the music that I have studies and listened to for the past 50 years.
I realize that the music of India is just as strong of a presence as any other form of music that is currently influencing the world music scene. I am also very impressed with the amount of people on bicycles since I also have a site that emphasizes the effect that bicycles have had on modern societies. George Harrison was always my favorite musician of musical group known as The Beatles and he was instrumental in inspiring them to go to India and it has been that influence that first edged me toward an interest in that country.
