Photographer’s Note
the door that seperates the "foreigners" from the local people. this pic was taken at the varanasi train station in the foreigner reservation area. there are seperate rooms in most train stations in india to accommodate foreign travelers ticket purchasing needs.
i love the colorful clothing all over india. even the most dreary of places can look so vibrant with the bright saris and fabrics.

Very informative Jenny. I didn't know such segregation existed. Is this a Hindu custom?

Hi Jenny.
The view through the not quite transparent glass and the colourful welcome sign work well for contrast. Interesting shot.
Regards, Rob
