On my scooter ride around Thanjavur (Tanjore), two pilgrims in orange robes flagged me down, smiling and pointing to my phone. We all understood immediately what this was - just people wanting to capture a moment. There was that nice, clear understanding between us: no money talk, no transaction, just a simple photo together. One click, some smiles, and we parted ways - them to Brihadishvara Temple, me on my scooter. Clean and simple, the way some travel moments should be.
