This is a very strong gallery. I particularly like how you choose a wide range of different subjects for your portraits, not just cute little kids, and wizened old folk. Most of the people one encounters in India are men aged 18-45, but they rarely feature in pbase travel photography. If I had one suggestion to make, I think that you too frequently situate the point of interest bang in the centre of the frame. A good contrast would be between the two portraits of the same man that I commented on. In the first he is to one side, and there is a sense of him looking into space. In the second, he is bang in the middle of the frame, and the image looks much less dynamic as a result. Anyway just a suggestion!
