My recent trip to Mumbai, Jaipur and Ranthambore was a sensory overload to say the least (and I’m Indian guys, you think I would be used to this by now) but it’s hard for those effervescent, character-filled, colourful and noisy streets not to leave their mark on anyone who sets foot on them. Whether I was walking in the midst of the chaos, sitting in a rickshaw or making my way up a monument, I focussed on capturing the people who make these bustling cities unique, the people who give this country character – the people on the streets. It’s true what they say; India is a photographer’s (amateur or not) dream come true.
Scroll below for a glimpse of India’s intriguing street life through my lens:
-
JAIPUR: The people who keep Amer Fort pristine. -
JAIPUR: I captured the ‘decisive moment’ at City Palace. -
JAIPUR: A policeman checking his phone before the day begins at Amer Fort. -
JAIPUR: A worker at Amer Fort stops to take a break. -
JAIPUR: It was clearly a slow day at work outside City Palace. -
JAIPUR: Friends catching up, one man making a living and the other two hanging out on the busy streets of Jaipur. -
RANTHAMBORE: A man making his way towards a monument in Ranthambore National Fort in Rajasthan. -
RANTHAMBORE: Monkey’s are a common sight all over India. -
MUMBAI: The best way to end a hectic day in the city is by going for a stroll on Marine Drive at sunset. -
MUMBAI: Dhobi ghaat, also known as an open-air laundromat. -
MUMBAI: The iconic black and yellow taxi cab. They are not the cleanest nor are they the smoothest ride but they are a huge part of the city. -
MUMBAI: An obedient dog waiting patiently for his owner.
