the tea pickers

This and the next photo were both taken at the Happy Valley Tea Estate in Darjeeling, India. Happy Valley is the exclusive supplier for the tea used at Harrod's department store in London. Visibility in Darjeeling is often very poor, due to the ubiquitous fog and mist, so when a reasonably clear day came along, I decided to visit the estate. I was fortunate to find these women out harvesting.
