India's Brilliant Technicolour - Keith Bellows

Words of Wonder by Keith Bellows
There are some parts of the world that,
once visited, get into your heart and won't go.
For me, India is such a place.
When I first visited, I was stunned by the richness of the land,
by its lush beauty and exotic architecture,
by its ability to overload the senses with the pure,
concentrated intensity of its colours, smells, tastes, and sounds.
It was as if all my life I had been seeing the world in black and white and,
when brought face-to-face with India,
experienced everything re-rendered in brilliant technicolour.
