Photography in the field: A personal selection

<< Photography is not only a visual memo for the ehtnographer, it is also a co-constructed object to represent the thickness of the lifeworld, at the intersection of individuals’ socialised performances and the framing eye of the ‘clicker’. Below is displayed a selection of fieldwork pictures from a variety of sites across South Asia, with a main focus on North India. The ethnographic material can be browsed on Flickr. The initial slideshow can be navigated through clicking on side arrows. For full screen view: Alt+F10 (Ubuntu/Linux distros), Fn+F11 (Windows), Control+Command+F (Mac). Wait ≈40-50 seconds for the images to load.
