Love hate relationship between siblings, Uttarakhand, India
Siblings share a unique relationship! These are sisters Ashwini and Sarita. Their parents ran a dhaba (food shack) in Naukuchiatal which is a small lake town in the state of Uttarakhand in India. We had dinner at their dhaba the previous night. That night they were very shy. They didn’t at all look at the camera. The next morning we went there again for breakfast. This time they had warmed up to us. They even played with us while we ate. And then gave us some fun filled shots.

Symbolic to the city of Mumbai, the Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), India
CST was formerly known as Victoria Terminus (VT) turns 125 years old.
Possibly the most populous UNESCO World Heritage structure, it is a part of daily life for millions of commuters. If you want to know what a “block of people” means, try entering the station at 9 AM on a weekday, when people are rushing to their offices. A great place to observe people of all kinds, seeing the sea of mankind emerge out of the station at rush hours is an interesting experience in itself.
If only its walls could talk!
