i can't wait to go back... it has to be one of the most rewarding places in the world to visit these days

Those are beautiful pictures, dgunbug. I have the hardest time capturing the local scenes and people of a city, and you did a great job.

Glad I was able to share this book. India is a fascinating country and it is hard to take a bad picture. There's just so much to photograph. By the way, these photo books, while time consuming to make, are a great way of preserving memories.

Thanks for sharing, dgunbug. The photos are wonderful. India seems like a fascinating country to visit. I hope to get there someday.

Well done, thanks for sharing.

A very nice book with some fascinating pictures. I know how long it takes to put something like that together! These pictures are helping me decide on some of the places we might want to visit on our trip to India next November, which we are jjust beginning to plan. Thanks!

I strongly suggest including Gwalior which was totally unexpected to us. It is not on the normal list of tourist destinations, but if you go to Orchha and khujaharo, it is on the way. The people there were very friendly and it was the one city we were not bombarded with people begging for food and money.

That is such a lovely book! I am looking forward to going there in just a few days .

Fantastic photos - Brought back many memories. Sorry we missed Gwalior and Jodhpur! I am the least likely person on the planet to put together a book like this, but I'm going to attempt it for our young guide from Delwara (near Devi Garh).

Fabulous photo book, dgunbug. I like the way you have put together categories of pictures--- makes it easy to see and follow the story you are telling. Very nice.
I agree that this is a great way to preserve memories.

You saw and did a lot on this trip --- are these pics all from just one trip?
If so, you were busy taking pictures and taking in the scene and absorbing so much.
I recall reading your TR at the time -- I enjoyed that as well. How long was your trip?

Congrats And thanks for sharing.

We spent 3 1/2 weeks in India and all the pictures are from that trip. We tried to spend several days in each location and had lots of time to wander, take pictures and absorb the atmosphere.

Each trip has gotten progressively longer. Our china trip which we just returned from was one month long. Nothing compares to India though. It was amazing and gets even better as we reflect on the trip and enjoy our pictures. Thanks everyone, for taking the time to look at the pictures.

Hi dgunbug, great job on your book. Thanks for sharing. I loved India too, and your book makes me want to go back and visit some of the places I missed, especially Udaipur.

Fabulous book. You've given me some great ideas. I've just started making photo books this year and had been pondering how to arrange the trip to India. Thank you.

Wonderful. Dgunbug!!!!! Thank you. How i miss India, looking at your photos.

dgunbug Jan 23rd, 2013 03:24 AM

Thanks! This is such a great way to preserve memories. We have so many pictures that we rarely look at, but the books give us such pleasure to look through from time to time.

So true dgunbug!

You did a great job on the India book and it helped me with my planning.

I did our first photo book after our trip to Machu Picchu in 2007. We love being able to just pick up the book and relive the trip any time. It is so easy do now.

I have done one for evey big trip since and have even gone back and made books for the couple of trips before 2007, but after we got our first digital cameras.

The thought of wading through all the sides of the big trips in the 20 years before digital is mind boggling however!!

Thanks for sharing.
