Friends, I have been quite busy in recent past and could not be very active on Flickr. I have not been uploading my photos, neither I have been commenting on your photos much. Though, I do view your photos whenever I get time. You all are requested to stay in touch, I am cooking up something, which you all would love.

This image of bullock cart race, was done at the famous village called KILA RAIPUR, about 20 kms from Ludhiana. This village in Punjab is well know for the rural games, which are hosted by the Grewal Sports Association of the village. Now, these games are popularly known as Rural Olympics. Its become hot favourite event of travel photographers. But I will not hesitate to say that the local press photographers, make a mess of photo opportunities there, very often.

I love to be at the event, as it offers variety of strange events as well, which are hard to photograph otherwise. The most popular event is the bullock cart race and its the main event of the four days sports.
