Mickey and Friend

True: I was taking a photo of Mickey, and this Hampi girl jumped in front of the camera, looked straight into the lens, and stood still just like this. What could I do? I clicked. Then, she came to look at the shot in the viewfinder, said the Kannada equivalent of, “Wait, I think I can do a better one,” went back to her mark, posed again in exactly the same way, and I clicked again. She looked at the result, laughed, and skipped her way back down the street.

Hampi locals come to the riverside each morning to bathe and brush their teeth. Someone left this toothbrush behind and I’m the lucky bastard that gets to keep it!

Silent Noise

Silent Noise is a beach party where everyone wears headphones, and multiple DJ’s wirelessly broadcast various channels of dance music. Occasionally when all the channels’ beats sync up, I am told the place goes nuts. Just lurking around with no headphones on, though, was a slightly creepy experience.
