Earlier this year my friend Anil got married. It was a traditional wedding for his part of the world. The thing that struck me most was the vivid color. Well, that and his cool hat, I guess.
Even taking into account advances in photography over the past 40 or 80 years, our weddings are lackluster by comparison. Also, my mom may have had a cool hat – with a feather! – but I did not. It would not be much later before wearing a hat would become a necessity for me. But that’s another story for another day.

In any case, congrats to Anil and Jyo, who now live in Atlanta and work for … Merrill Lynch? Bear Stearns? Goldman Sachs? Morgan Stanley? One of those. Any way you slice it, we’ve come a long way since the carefree KDCF days of 2016.
