India: The big picture

The Boston Big Picture describes the Scenes from India in a Big way.

India is home to over 1.2 billion people of wildly varying religions, cultures and levels of wealth. Only 61 years since declaring its Independence from English rule, modern India is still defining itself, sometimes against the friction inside and outside of its borders.

Check out the awesome Photos.
