विपरीत लिंगी से प्यार पाने को कितना व्याकुल रहता है इंसान?
ReplyDeleteऔर इंसान ने ही प्यार की इस व्याकुलता को धंधे में बदल दिया है।
दीनेशजी, धंधे का सीधा समबन्ध मांग से है. फिर वह प्रेम हो या धर्म...
ReplyDeleteशीशीशियों में कोई चुर्ण या तरल भरा है क्या? हमारे यहाँ मंत्रित चुर्ण होता है जिसे सम्बन्धित व्यक्ति को चाय वगेरे में पीला देना होता है. विचित्र लगता है ऐसी मान्यताएं विश्वव्यापि है.
तस्वीरें सुन्दर है और जानकारी भी.
शीशियों में पदार्थ तरल भी थे और चूर्ण जैसे पाउडर भी. कह रहीं थीं कि यह सब खरीदने के लिए हर उम्र के स्त्री पुरुष आते हैं. :)

ReplyDeleteDinesh, Some great photographs here. I like the way you weave your stories and photographs together. Nice to connect.
ReplyDeleteThankyou all these lovely comments.
ReplyDeleteActually I was very suspicious and didn't accept to taste any of their potions - they even had something for making me more attractive!!
My Brazilian friend who was accompanying me, she said that we shouldn't take it so seriously, that is good as a psychological help, specially to overcome an unfaithful ex-lover.
Very similar to Indian markets .. except it looks much more cleaner and less crowded!
ReplyDeleteThe eye for the extra- ordinary in the ordinary feels awesome..liked it a lot
