This pic comes under the series “On streets of Ahmedabad” … A Experience I had while spending a day capturing streets of Ahmedabad.
I remember the interesting incident I faced just before I captured this pic. I am born and brought up in Gujarat and my college was 80 kilometers from Ahmedabad. So I have visited the city many times and have even lived there for 6 months. But this time when I was roaming with my camera, trying to capture the life I have been seeing since many years, I was approached by local street vendors demanding not to take pictures here and also asked me to delete all the pics I have taken.
I was not offended by this, but was rather amused. How certain attributes you carry can change people’s point of view for you. I have visited that very place hundreds of time and every time I have communicated with the local vendors with ease. But this time the camera and my decision to record the life I have lived here made the difference.
Talking about the pic, I am sorry that the heel is not in focus in the pics. I was kind of overwhelmed by the incident so I guess was pre-occupied. This is not an excuse but just an explanation :) . I had to reduce the size as the original pic was exceeding the defined limit. I am not sure whether I can paste the facebook link here. Will paste flickr link if I upload the pic there :)
Please do let me know what does these pics miss. praise it or reject it, but express your feelings using comments :)
