Have you ever wander in your own city, the city in which you’ve spent your entire life… yeah, that city, the one you know like the back of your palm… and have you ever stepped out in that city in very odd hours?! probably not, and if yes then mostly due to some grave reasons. Where i’m trying to take this is there are things we’ve went past like a billion times, we see it everyday, all day yet we miss a part of it. With my these 3 photos I’ve tried to picturize is the essence of my city devoid of all it’s residents. I call this theme as Ghost Town, both for being devoid of all human which gives it the fell of being abandoned and also because this is a mood of this city no one ever sees, just like a ghost. And yet it is so very beautiful.
They say, “it’s not the place, it’s the people which makes the place beautiful.” I say “beauty has always been there, waiting for someone to go the distance and have the eye to see it!”
