Earlier I used the Blackberry curve but never shot pictures on it ,, hated shooting pictures on the mobile .. dont know why maybe I was too hung up on my DSLR's
I come here very often ,there are a lot of tailoring embroidery workshops here.
Lots of butcher shops , chicken shops and this is a typical Muslim ghetto ,it has many tiny bylanes , pigeon hole for houses , gutter running outside the houses, kids shitting bathing women washing clothes you see it all here .
From the lane where I shot my earlier slum pictures I walk straight ahead in the heart of the slums I will exit at Shastri Nagar slums that stretches till the railway tracks of Bandra west.
You walk out towards the Bandra bus depot , the Station Road Sunni Masjid and the Bandra Station.
So back to my picture of the Muslim beggar ,this is a busy lane you enter all the main arteries of the Bandra Compound slums tiny dinghy pathways .
People know me here as an actor photographer , and I showed one of them his picture I had shot a few days back, he looked surprised as he was not aware I had shot him.. he seemed happy he was hoping happy days touch this iconic Bandra slum s too .
From here I walk back towards Bandra SV Road I shot the wood carvers , and than I cross the road to buy bloodworms for Marziya my grand daughters flowerhorns and black ghosts .
I walk a lot and it is so hot that though I had showered before leaving my house I am totally drenched with sweat , and it is horrendously humid..I enter JJ Colony buy coriander and sprouts for Marziyas Java finches and I reached home , showered again.
My mobile is synced to Flickr what I shoot is uploaded here privately than I make the necessary changes add text etc.. I fed the fishes and the birds just now.
