Crawford Market in Mumbai
This past weekend we were in Mumbai. After learning about Esmerelda’s deep passion for mangoes, a friend of ours insisted on taking us for a visit to Crawford Market.

Here are cases of the India's alphonso mangos. E is looking forward to the approaching mango season so she can gorge on these famous mangos. I hear that in Bush's recent visit he agreed to open the US market to Indian mangos. Watch out South American farmers! Indian mangos are going to hit you quite hard!

These kids were very peacefully talking and eating together, but the moment I whipped out my camera all hell broke loose. This is one of several failed shots I took to capture them sitting nicely. Oh well.

It was a hot day. Some of the workers in the market were taking mid-day naps.
Monster papaya!

Hi, Cannot understand why you should call it a `failed shot.' There is nice expression and spontaneity - if you have more such failed shots :) please post them.
