I knew when I got this shot that the odds were similar to purchasing a winning mega-million-dollar lottery ticket. There were so many random factors involved that aligned with the camera, lens, and settings choices that I made beforehand, all of which made it possible to take the shot and allow the entire image to be processed. Not to mention, the chances that I was able to photograph one of my favorite subjects (laborers), candidly, without even knowing what was there and without looking.

I shot this sequence in 2017 on the north side of Vasai Creek near the Vasai Fort. It was just after sunrise and I saw a tempo loaded with ice near the makeshift dock.

Three shots from Mumbai that I quite like. All three were taken using the Sony A7iii paired with the Sigma 35mm ART lens. This combo isn’t the best for street photography due to the weight but the image quality is fantastic.

Sometimes, the only way I know that I'm on the right track with anything is when I go back and look at my work and it makes me want to go out and take pictures. I'm sure some of you may feel the same way about your own images taken at your favorite haunts.
