Absolutely lovely photo Peter!
The guy on the left is most likely a Pathan..I've seen many 6 ft 6 in Pathans in Mumbai about 30-odd years ago ( wonder where they all went! They were numerous in colonial Bombay and often created law and order problems, but that's another story!) I once met a Pathan moneylender who was a veritable giant well over 6 ft 6 or so it seemed to puny 5 ft 11in me. I still have his card!
The giant on the right may well be an African, but though I can't really put a finger on it I still think it's most likely an Indian from the north..
