I took some photographs at a wrestling tournament in Northern India. These tournaments happen every year, and I managed to attend this year, and was given an honorary hat as a special guest. Nobody complained about me blocking their view while I took photographs. The interesting thing about the wrestlers is that when they are grappling, it sometimes looks like they are dancing!
India has a long tradition of wrestling, ancient in fact. Boys start early as parents refer them to a dedicated school for training. If they have potential it becomes their livelihood. Most of the wrestlers I met seemed very friendly, and they really enjoyed their craft.
