We briefly re-visited the national historic landmark, Ybor City, the Latin quarter in Tampa (the only part of oh-so-new-and-boring city that has character to it). It's a delightful place for the history-philes especially coz of its old cigar factories, where the old art of hand-rolled cigar continues to live on. We had not much time or quarters to park today! The pic of this indiscrete bylane instantly reminded me of India and all its gullies and nukkads(well not exactly nukkads, but i can't think of gully w/out nukkad!) :)

Its a beautiful shot, you finally hunted down the character in Tampa! :)
first of all ur embrassing me an apology for what...u have put a link to my blog..its an honour ...there r some amazing blogs linked to urs so it feels so nice that u like what i write and u can clearly imagine how much a fan i am of ur photoblog..i almost check it daily
and best part about pic. is that they speak louder than words and i am still waiting to see the first human pic on ur blog...and thank u for putting my blog link u tc and enjoy
and sorry for wrong spelling of embarrassing ..and about this pic what to say reminds me of spiderman movie where he throw away his mask
i really, really like that one...
isn't it weird how some images can really talk to someone and then others are just, ehh?
btw, what part of india are you from? i've been to calcutta and siliguri...also near bhutan.
i haven't been to new dehli yet. maybe soon i will be able to go. the images i have from siliguri are when i had my nikon n65 35mm, so i had to scan them. i took about 7 rolls worth, but i can't seem to find them. when i head back spring '07, i'll be using the digital, so i will be able to shoot more.
Nice shot. Good perspective.
I wish I could go more often to some of the numerous dilapidated buildings around here in Toronto.These structures, to me, are like stories, to which you can add your imagination.
