The lady



Took this when we were in the spice market in Kharibauli,Delhi 6.The air was full of spices..the sound of sneezes and people coughing was in the chorus. But those sounds differentiated the people who belonged there and the people who came there either to shop or just to stroll.The ones who belonged there were quiet.
so wts special about the picture ?
the spices!?
no !
look for the face of a lady in the dark, behind the gunny bags..got it ?
So, i was walking and suddenly her face caught  me up ! i could see nothing else except her face and her expressions . i clicked it and captured that space-time in my cam .

Doors of Kathmandu

The most versatile piece in a building, [the door] has been a mode of expression [for] ages. The door in apartments and modern societies is just a mode of a transition from outside to inside. In traditional cities and neighborhoods, like that of Kathmandu, it’s much more than that. It’s the place where people spend most of their time. Sitting at the Chaukhat, socializing and chatting. The door is not just a tangible unit, it’s the respect you give to your building. Below are the photos I clicked during my site visits and explorations in and around Kathmandu, Nepal.

Prologue:  “ I have not slept for more than 6 hours since the time I started my internship. There have been times when I haven't slept at all. Everyday is a beautiful day here. There is no unproductive or bad day at Hunnarshala.

DILLI 6

It was the last day of my internship with HT, and i had to sigh off with the launch of my series on Delhi in HDR. i had made quite a collection of the photographs but wanted more... , Gurinder sir ( The national Photo Editor of Hindustan Times) suggested me to go to khari bauli area, next to Chandni Chawk."You will smell it " he said when i asked him about the directions, (the first time he gave me the same reply was when i asked him for the directions to the washroom in the HT office) so i accepted the reply instantly this time. I called Shanu bhiya , (one of my cool schoolmates who is now professionally into photography).We went to chandni chawk at first and then Khari bauli.(by smelling it). In the next posts , i will be posting some of the shots i took and some of my thoughts. :)
