Gentlemen celebrating Hari Raya at Masjid India

Some of the gentlemen gestured to ask me to take their photo, and I will have appeared in quite a few selphies too! The most odd situation was these two guys in the photo below. They clearly wanted to pose for me in this gentle, almost non-touching, hug.

With 500 men eager to get some food, photo taking was mostly rather adhoc, so I have simply gathered together some snapshots as these guys queed up and received their gifts, and it serves as a reminder of the wonderful variety of human faces. I understand that many of these men come from Bangladesh, but there were also faces reminescent of Indian Pathans.
