Bombay Tailor, a photo from Maharashtra, West

Photographer's Note

During a walk in the slums of Bombay I came across this tailor in his small little house. A few tables and a sewing machine was all he possessed...

I like the composition of Sewing machine and man in black with dark hair is nice, almost in the center. HiS condition can tell that he is trying to Survive in the current Scenario though he might be Star of yesterday...given to the fact that you can See many of finished cloths in the Shop... all you See him altering a pair of jeans.

Hi Bruno!
Wonderful upload of this tailor. They of course are everywhere in India, and Nepal....these little shops with a sewing maching, but you have capture a scene that is perfect and really says it all! A little more sharpness might be in order after re-sizing? What do you think? At least that is the way it looks to my eye. And a larger size too....it is such a great photo. Fine work, warm regards,
Steve
