A chai-wallah’s thela (cart) in Noida. Just fun to study all the little details.

Without people: Where is a good cycle-wallah when you need one?

Noida street
India’s population is set to pass 1.6 billion people by 2050; this is quite possibly the largest obstacle facing the country in the coming decades.
(In truth, population growth the world over will be one of the biggest trials our species faces.)
Anyone who has visited India knows: There are, quite simply, people everywhere, and it has profound effects on culture, social services and life for everyone.
With that in mind, I’ll be posting shots where people are conspicuously absent. Today and tomorrow’s posts will kick this off; I hope to continue it regularly in the months ahead. I’ll use a special tag: “without people.”

Wet cattle
Cows herd around a traffic island in Noida beneath an overpass to avoid a November rain.
The guys on the motorbike nearly crashed because they wanted to look at me as they sped by.
