Thali - a Hindi word meaning "plate" - is an Indian meal made up of a selection of various dishes. Thali dishes vary from region to region and they are usually served in small bowls on a round tray. They typically include include rice, dhal, vegetables, roti, papad, yogurt, small amounts of chutney or pickle, and a sweet dish to top it off.

This portfolio is a selection of impressions – portraits, architecture, costume, street life – gathered over a month travelling in India. I have chosen Ziatype to give a sense of ancient traditions as well as a feel of the nostalgia of travel.
