Life in India is an Indian based photo sharing group on Flickr looking to observe the inner walks of life in India from a cultural perspective. We believe that this is a collective effort to know, explore and collate the valuable Indian shots from dispersed platforms meaningfully. The most interesting entries,discussion threads and other activities in Life in India pool will be published in the official blog. We do believe that LIFE IN INDIA is an outcome of meaningful Flickr search. Feel free to view, comment, discuss and invite your friends to this collective endeavor.
