Pics from an autorickshaw

Below are some pics I took here in Bangalore the Saturday before I left for Dubai. There were several things that I've been dying to get pics of, and a few of them are below. For example, you see women in sarees sitting side saddle on the back of motorcycles here. Wild. Had to get a pic, but it's hard to do in traffic. Also, I was dying to get a "cow walks down the road" pic, but every time I see livestock in the middle of a busy city street, I take too long fishing out my camera, and they're past. So below are my best efforts so far. All these are taken from the back of an autorickshaw as I rode around town, so they're not exactly artistic wonders, but they give an idea of what you might see riding around Bangalore. Enjoy!
