Here's one way to take a nap! More times than I can count, I have seen limp sleeping babies precariously (to my Western eyes, anyway) extended lazily across the handlebars of a motorcyle. Yes, a moving motorcycle. Or draped over their mother's arm, sleepy head bobbing a few feet from the whirling concrete below. Still, it makes my heart skip a beat.
And yet I love the immediacy of life on the road, unencumbered by doors and glass. In India, it's always a communal enterprise, not an exhibition, not to see and to be seen, but just to live. This is how we get around.
thank you for getting the shot of the guy with the pink helmet. You have some great shots!!!
ReplyDeleteAt first I did not even see the child draped across the front! You and your camera are doing a fabulous job. Looks like you are having fun with it too.
