Closely knit?

Kodaikanal (Tamil: கொடைக்கானல்) is a city^[2] in the hills of the taluk division of the Dindigul district in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. Its name in the Tamil language means "The Gift of the Forest".^[3] Kodaikanal is referred as the "Princess of Hill stations" and has a long history as a retreat and popular tourist destination. It's a lot cooler in temperature than lower elevation cities such as Chennai. 

In this particular shot, my enthusiastic guide wanted to show us how carrots, butter beans, honey, etc is cultivated and during that trip, found this beautiful, closely knit assortment of huts. July 2007. I have given it a black-and-white setting to give it a vintage look...more on this wonderful hill station on wiki here...
