The Lord of New Beginnings

This picture was taken at Carter Road, Bandra, Mumbai. Ganesh Chaturthi came and went. The Lord of New Beginnings had been left to face the Arabian Sea. Revered and loved, it is a lonely God who now watches the sea alone.

Joy Is Not Just for the Young

In a laid back village on the outskirts of Vasai, I met Leena Maushi. I do not know when she was last photographed but it was a privilege and joy to spend some moments with her. Here was a beautiful woman, alive, self-sufficient and living her life. Lessons here. Big ones. Joy is not bound by the riches you have. It is that enrichment of the soul that lives with you day in and day out, free of limits of age, era or caste and creed.
