And back again! A smile and a wave to you, follower, and you, worthy reader. It's alright, I know you're all in my head too. Here are some photographs that were taken this past year in Delhi. There aren't that many, not because I haven't been exploring the city, but that it's a clear case what my favourite parts are: old people and ruins, you make the world a better place.</div>

A trinket seller at the Daryagunj book market, I told him about scoring Milligan's War for twenty bucks but he was unimpressed and suggested I'd be better off with one of his pendants. Sales tactic win on his side? Weak character on mine? Who knows these things. </div>

Photos from January: Landour, Mussoorie, during the worst winter it's seen in some years. We reached in the midst of snow, promptly got snowed in, and spent the rest of our stay drinking hot soup, reading by a fire, and exploring a creaky old house. In other words, awesomeness of the Narnia kind. </div>

A hurried post on a hurried trip to Jaipur around Diwali last year. I really wanted to see things on this trip rather than take pictures of them because, I don't know, I suppose Rajasthan intimidates me. I mean, what can you do here that hasn't been done before? In which case it makes more sense to just watch rather than run amok shooting every damn thing you see. Besides, sometimes you just want to walk around unhindered by a camera. The ones below are things that randomly caught my eye on the standard round of the forts. The rest? Stored away haphazardly in stacked dirty boxes in my head.</div>

I could fit four into my palm. We put them into buckets and carried them out to sea purely to thwart the Brahminy kites circling overhead, but I still saw a couple of them swoop down and snatch a baby or two right out of the waves.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">I have more photos of people from the village from last year, when we arrived a week too early for the turtles and walked around the village and watched the fishing boats come in and saw the biggest swordfish ever. But I took them all on my father's old Nikon SLR and scanning them is a monumental pain in the behind so these will have to do.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
As an unapologetic animal planet nerd, I can now consider myself an extremely lucky creature for having been able to witness this. The Olive Ridley turtles that migrate and nest on the eastern coast here have eluded me this past one year, but this second trip was the most peace I've had in ages. The beach is pristine, the sky magnificent, the turtles beautiful and gentle, and just sitting there through early morning and late evening surrounded by hundreds of them nesting all around, it's something else altogether. My writing skills have deteriorated to a point of no return so I really can't explain this but you can't say I didn't try.<br />
<br />
And kill me with fire if I don't go back for the hatching of the eggs.<br />
