Child of Chennai

Chennai, India. This child was sitting in his stairwell eating dinner. He used a palm leaf as a plate which is common in this area. For these meals, utensils are not utilized — only hands.

There is a tactile sensation that is lost with a fork and knife and this sensation adds a completely new dimension to the eating experience.

The Smoker

Coney Island, New York. I saw this woman and asked if I could take her picture. She saw my holga and said she’d been shooting with hers for years now. It was her favorite camera, too.
