I love this ad on the wall of a building near Coffee World in Lalmatia!  It is likely because this is the kind of camera I used from 1964-66 when I was doing photography for my high school newspaper and yearbook!

Great style of camera! The good ole' days!

BAG PACKER’S WAS THE STORE THAT SPONSORED THE FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT WE FINISHED YESTERDAY.

THE SIGN FOR A STORE CHAIN THAT SELLS HANDBAGS, SUITCASES, ETC.

 

DEVELOPERS DECIDED  TO GIVE THIS NEW BUILDING A COZY FEELING KIND OF NAME!

IT WILL DEFINITELY BE URBAN, AND MAYBE COZY LIKE A HUT!

This is a photo of a sign in front of the construction site for this building!

I COULDN’T RESIST TAKING THIS PHOTO IN LALMATIA!

STREET SCENE IN LALMATIA NEAR GIRL’S COLLEGE.

EKUSHEY FEBRUARY AND INTERNATIONAL MOTHER LANGUAGE DAY.  It is a special day of celebration in Bangladesh (which literally means Bangla Country).   Here I am wearing a punjabi worn by many Bengalis for special occasions.

Note the Bangla script on the sign in the background!

Day 293

CALCUTTA (KOLKATA) THE PASSIONATE CITY, according to this billboard!  Are you passionate about what you are doing?

Day 279

BIGGER THAN LIFE: PANTALOON ADS WITH LOCALS RELAXING in front oblivious as to what is behind them.

I was looking for a grocery store and it was located on a top floor of Pantaloons.

    

Day 275

SUBWAY RESTAURANT IN KOLKATA near New Market.  This is something we don’t have in Dhaka.  We definitely savored these subs several times while in Kolkata.  Alice like the veggie subs, and I liked the chicken subs, whether Teryaki, Tikka, or Tandoori!!

 

As seen from across the street.

Yes, always fresh!

Day 274

THIS GUARD WAS TOO LATE IN LETTING ME KNOW HE DIDN’T WANT A PHOTO TAKEN.  I really would have liked a scene where he was sitting relaxed in front of the ad, but so it goes.

TTL’s “BANGLADESH IN FRAMES 3” PHOTO EXHIBITION is finished.  It ran from March 25-29. The photo below was taken outside the gallery.  I am also in the group photo on the right hand side.  Look for a pale face and white hair.  It may be hard to do with the spot light that was aimed at the poster plus camera flash.  Day 76 has a better rendition of the group photo.

SIGN PAINTER IN DHAKA, BANGLADESH.  In English it is “Girl’s College.”
