A Dying Tradition, a photo from West Bengal, East

Photographer's Note

In Kolkata, rickshaw operators are facing pressure from the government who feel deeply embarrassed by the fact and want many to take metro or buses. However, in many circumstances, the rickshaw drivers are the best option to move around the city in rain and provide for an honest days' wages for migrants from surrounding states.

Hi Antonis,
I think that this image is really well composed with the rickshaw man in between the poles, and best of all is the blurred coloured bus speeding by in the background. Good eye contact you have with him too. A sad dilemma for these people.
Regards
Wanda
