Kambala

After a stint of freelance studio photography, working in the industrial estates of Milton Keynes, I decided to take a break over xmas and new year, spending 2 months backpacking round south India with my Mamiya 645 and a load of film. One of the highlights of my trip was spent watching kambala (buffalo racing) in a little village called Miyar in Karnataka.
Here's a few shots from the day
