Rajasthan - Shades of Brown and Red

Rajasthan - Shades of Brown and Red

Going through my archive of photos I came across these images that I had taken a couple of years back in Rajasthan, India. Most of these photos were shot on the outskirts of Jodhpur in small villages. I applied a particular style to these images to give them the look that they have below. These styles were applied in Adobe Lightroom 4 initially using "Matt's 300 Look - Soft" (by Matt Kloskowski) preset then modified to give them the final touch below.
