Pictures from a visit to Madras (now known as Chennai), India, to see a friend and his family, and onwards to the Andaman Islands. The Islands had a limited access for foreign nationals requiring a special permit, and we were restricted to the South Andaman Island.
Exterior pictures were often difficult, as a lot of the time it was dull overcast with near 100% humidity on the Island as a result of a Typhoon passing through, so a lot of the pictures are post processed digitally to try to improve them. Butterflies, particularly, were difficult to photograph, as when they were in evidence between the rain storms, they were intent on feeding, so were on the move all the time. Often, they had to be taken as long shot with the still camera, so are not good quality images. I had better success on video, so if I can digitise the video, some time, I'll post more of the pictures later on.
