Darjeeling surprise!



Just discovered this random image on a Google search - it is shot by photographer Marc Riboud in 1956 in the enchanting hill town where I was born, Darjeeling, India.
I remember the quiet, cool, misty mornings like it was yesterday.
But like everywhere else, Darjeeling today is most likely over crowded, noisy and polluted... making an image like this even more special and nostalgic.
Cheers to discovering the unexpected on a Google search!
I'm excited to research Mr. Riboud's work.
