In India, due to its caste system, there is a group of people called the “untouchables”.
We are talking millions of them, not just a tiny group.
These people received their ‘title’ by default, by birth.
They are considered impure.
They are not considered human beings.
I wonder if any of the ‘untouchables’ carved these beautiful flowers to adorn Taj Mahal.
The untouched color of Taj Mahal is a prime example of “Monochromatic.” Photoshop not necessary using an instamatic camera.
Several years ago, one of my Baptist relatives went on a mission trip to India. The “untouchables” were moved by the missionaries’ open display of affection for them. Gorgeous photos. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing what truly our ‘mission’ on Earth. Blessings!
These are beautiful carvings, Perpetua! I’m not familiar with the untouchables.
love the images hate the prejudice against the “untouchables”
Serenely beautiful.
Such intricate carvings does make you wonder who’s responsible for such delicate workmanship.
Very Nicely Done! Am sure the untouchables were also responsible, after all, back then, they were cheap labour.
Beautiful..
Lovely Pictures!! 🙂
