Photoessay : Groups No. 5

Hello,

I am in the UK for a very short spell, but in the meantime I thought I'd post my latest collection of group shots from the last few months.

Thanks for visiting!

(PS I'm missing Bombay, but at least the weather is very fine in the UK for once!)


Museum attendants - Dr Bhau Daji Lad Museum

Bar staff and waiters at the Hard Rock Cafe, Mumbai

Gypsy children near the railway track, Chembur

Gypsy firewood sellers - under a railway bridge in Chembur

Construction workers

More (terribly serious!)  construction workers

TV repair men - Matheran High Street

Women working on path repairs in Matheran - in their best monsoon garb

Men and women workers seem to be segregated - here are the men working on the same path but a bit lower down. Note the gentleman on the left who is balancing a bottle of water on his head!

The 'front line' at my favourite butchers Joseph's in Bandra


Recent graduates of the Community Support Volunteer Scheme at the NGO where I work - proudly holding their certificates. Love the third lady from the left at the back!

  2. Love the idea of taking group photos...the firewood selling woman on the left is so beautiful. And of course the women in Matheran, lovely gear!
    Enjoy the Uk and the mild summer!

    1. The UK summer is insanely hot....hotter than Mumbai right now! I found the gypsy firewood sellers so enigmatic...kind of scary too
