Was visiting family in Mumbai, India for a short vacation last month. The incessant but necessary rains really dampened a lot of plans making general travel within the city challenging - especially with the traffic. But still had the odd opportunity to walk around seeking strangers for the project. The next few encounters are, in no particular order, from my Mumbai days.

Meet Shaveta

 

Shaveta was in fact the first stranger I photographed during my visit to Mumbai, Having just traveled back home after a few years was still toying with the idea of moving the project further but was still adjusting to the newer environment. so was quite hesitant.

 

Was at a mall and while stopping by the food court for a quick lunch came across Shaveta with a a tall good looking dude who I later learned was her brother Nishanth. Its quite easy to the young lady is very beautiful and can grab attention even in a crowd. with her fabulous personality. And did I mention the sharp eyes? I waited for a while for them to finish lunch before approaching them at their table. As challenging as this is, its a little tougher when your subject has a 6 and half feet companion. But after hearing me out for a few minutes, Shaveta agreed with a smile to be on the project.

 

Shaveta is a doctor by profession - specializing in Ayurveda. A multi-faceted personality she is a artist at heart and has varied interests. She loves dancing, acting reading, writing and modelling. In fact she was in Mumbai for an audition for lending her voice for a commercial campaign. She also loves travelling - recently she had been to Nagaland.

 

What is her favorite quality of herself - that she can keep a positive attitude and ability to be happy at all times. If I cant be happy, then how can I treat others as a doctor was her simple yet deeply insightful observation.

 

We then proceeded to find a few spots in the mall to shoot a few quick pictures - although the overhead lights did make it a challenge. Funnily the mall security allows mobile pictures but thinks anything with a DSLR as a commercial shoot - so we had to move fast for a few clicks by the window. But Shaveta was confidence personified with her posing and expressions. Turns out that she was infact a winner of the Glitter Miss India pageant in 2014. I can't help giving myself kudos finding such standout strangers - jokes aside there definitely was something special about her even from a distance.

 

Nishant was a big help providing valuable suggestions and encouraging his sister. In fact we did a few quick clicks of the young man as we waited outside for his cab to arrive and was easy to see that modelling possibly runs in the family.

 

Thank you Shaveta (and Nishant) for all your time and trust doing these picture It was great making your acquaintance and I quite enjoyed photographing you. I wish you both a lot of success and best wishes for your future

Freedom at 21 - Jack White

 

"All she thinks about:

No responsibility, no guilt or morals.

Cloud of judgement -

Smile on her face

She does what she damn well pleases....

(Right)

And she doesn't care about the things people used to do.

She doesn't care that what she does has an effect on you.

She's got freedom in the 21st century."

Norfolk Southern manifest train 11Z crossing Old Chapel Avenue in Boyce, Virginia, March 30, 2021

inspired by Daniele Buetti, whose work I utterly adore

 

"and I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

that I caught your eye

'cuz baby you darling, you darling, oh honey,

you caught mine.

...

and I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

you were burning up inside

because these feelings, these feelings

are so hard to hide."

We took a trip up to Arkansas for Memorial Day weekend. We are staying at a house on the lake. It's a beautiful time of year to be in the Ozarks!

In this shot, Dolce is standing on the boat dock with the stone cliffs as the background across the lake. I thought the coloring in the cliffs was lovely and complemented Dolce's coat nicely.

Starfighter Telephone game. Nannan sent me the fighter on the right, the one on the left is my response - and it will now be sent on to Nathan Decastro for his response.
