Since late afternoon I have been trying to process the color image of this copy at Aviary and it just would not work, as I type with one finger of a permanently damaged hand Aviary has been a boon , it makes me work on my archives and I poeticize the new image that comes through.. I add text or new evolved thought as I hardly shoot pictures unless I am shooting a festival..
Ever since I began using the Motorola G I use my mobilephone for my street photography, or for recording some nostalgic moment.
I pimp my Flickrblogs as you are aware on Twitter Tumblr and Google+ I am not on Facebook ..it has now become dangerously killer site for the rabid who post hurtful images to attack communities ethnicity and in the end in more cases than one it is the general public that suffers when the rightwingers hit back with a vengeance.
And Modi Sarkar should do something about this and give priority to getting rid of father and son ruling Uttar Pradesh.
In Maharashtra sadly changing , replacing ministers is not going to be much help unless you remove those people that have let governance law order down the gutter literally.
I stay off politics I was a sympathizer of the Am Admi Party for ushering hope but now it seems a house divided from within and outside , and sadly it is one man party , of Arvind Kejriwal by Arvind Kejriwal and for Arvind Kejriwal.
And I hardly use the Flickr Forum ,where at times even in the past one member bullies another member .. by words that are a slap on the face of the complainant.
I informed both Aviary Support the worst support system on cyberspace , they take your email and never respond to you ..they hate Flickr members is what I feel sensitively as a poet.
Flickr Customer Care , has ne feelings or care , I sent them a message they sent me a acknowledgement but nothing about the issue and it is the truth .
I dont use Pic Monkey or Photoshop I am a rough edged street photographer I manipulate my own images via Aviary ..I change tones and add my restless angst as a street poet of pain.
And I dont need self promotion my pictures are viewed.. 296,979 photos since June 2007 and 28,442,579 views in humility and gratitude.
I dont post porn , I dont post blogs that hurt I shoot culture rituals and diverse religiosity of India my motherland ..my yesterday , today and tomorrow ..
My pictures are marked Safe at Flickr , and those pictures of the Maha Kumbh with frontal nudity of the Naga Sadhus has been moderated and can oly seen by Flickr members.. Even my Moharam pictures that gets on the goat of pseudo fundamentalists anti Shia brigade I have moderated and I cut my head every year to protest againt the muder of Imam Hussain. at Karbala by the enemies
of Islam within Islam.
And because of all this sectarian hate , I chose the path of peace became a Malang or semi ascetic.. I am happy and my happiness should not hurt others ,.
Even here at Flickr I abide by the rules and regulations , I only comment on those who are my followers friends .. and favorite and encourage newbies on Flickr .. the best photo blogging site ,,
And the picture that inspired me to fill this blank space with text is about Hunger ,, the only greater reality on Earth much greater than GOD .. whether you believe in him or dont ... Hunger does not go it attacks the dignity of a beggar more than anybody else , and ironically those that give coupons to feed beggars have become multi millionaires .. they have not opened a widows home or a children s home .. there is so much hypocrisy in my
own community that I stay away from everyone .. I shoot beggars I dont sell images and I showcase Hunger ,Deprivation of the Basic Right to live with Dignity ,, Governments should even respect those that did not vote for them.. the homeless the beggars the urchins the demarginalized.
I guess this is the gist of my picture I gave the boy money to buy food , but as you know it will be taken away by his parents guardians that have bought him here to beg at Ajmer The Urus Of Khwajah Garib Nawaz Saint of the Poor ..It was shot in 2010 .. Everything has changed old faces gone new faces in but Hunger is there stalking man making him steal rob beg..
I dont know why he rapes but I guess that is another Hunger for which I have no answer.. And I hope Uttar Pradesh is made free from the clutches of filthy evil fiefdom...
Google search will show Badaun-type incidents in other places too:..and
Hope you did not face any danger.. is not holistic healing at all .. the touch of the saviour cannot be the gift of Rs 5 Lacs to a rape victims family ...
And we were all hung from the mango tree in Badaun.. all India beyond caste color or creed .
Yes this is a Blog On Hunger
