Workers in the field picking tea leaves. They only pick the top leaves from the plant. Some of the tea at the plantation is cut by machine. The hand picked tea is of higher quality.

Many of these workers are employed for the Common Wealth Games.

 

News on BBC, 14th of May 2010: "Tens of millions of dollars have been diverted in India from schemes to fight poverty and used to fund Delhi's Commonwealth Games, a report says. The report also says spending on the Games has spiralled out of control: expenditure on sports infrastructure alone is more than 2,000% of the initial projected budget. In addition, more than 100,000 poor families have already been evicted due to projects connected with the Games, and up to 40,000 families are likely to be displaced before the Games begin in October, the document says.

 

There have been dozens of deadly accidents on the various sites.

I have been quite around the streets in old Dubai market area. But yesterday was the first time I visited the market area in Deira. I was jus' surprised at sight of workers kickin' back on these mini cargo trolleys on every nook and corner of the busy streets sippin' tea n having a chit chat.

 

While I was there, I did try to kick back on one of these myself :D

A construction worker on the new Bow office tower, behind the old Northwest Traveller's Building. I liked the mix of steel girders, metal balcony, and old brick.

I left a few 'failed' polaroids in my bike basket for a week to see what would happen to them. They got rained on, squashed by bags and generally abused. But a couple came out quite interesting.
