the excess of your talking
and the turmoil in your hearts,
you would see what I see
and hear what I hear!
Rumi
Majority of Indians I have seen having lived in Mumbai almost 59 years are mostly Hindus or Muslims or other religious denominations ..the spirit of India comes for a short while during our Independence day or Republican day a farcical show like Valentines day to appease our Flag and the chalk faced politicians .
Here in Mumbai people dont feel or see they just charge home from work or from work to home , they tell me wow you shoot great pictures and I only shoot what they fail too see , our so called Indians are immune to beggars , accidents on the road and so many other things,
But God spare you if you come in the way of the Indian in his car in a hurry , you dent it accidentally you will be beaten black and blue and when you really hope a cop will appear he will be discussing the weather down the road with the cobbler .
I am a photo blogger I see a lot of pain on the streets and I wonder why others dont see it or feel it , there are some who feel only for dogs and cats but never for the little child that was bitten viciously by a dog.
I mean how can we fight with our neighbors and because of a loudspeaker that disturbs everyone's ears ,end up with an uncalled riot beats me .
Still I think Mumbai is more sane as compared to some cities in Uttar Pradesh.. and now i wonder why I am writing all this ,,
I shoot pictures from moving trains , taxis rickshas but I do capture the ethos and the gist of a situation.
And this was one picture I shot from a Mumbai train going to Ajmer Sharif.
