Im not sure if they are, but they are Indian that's all I know

Are photos Copyright materials?
Yes they are but not by me ! So be careful !

Thanks to many Sikh individuals for allowing us to use certain images on this site

The site is designed to be viewed at a screen resolution of 800x600 with the Verdana font installed. Due to the nature of the site and in order to present the images in the best possible quality it has been necessary to keep some of the file sizes quite large and I hope this does not affect page loading times too much. The majority of images on this site are available as larger downloads
