Artist's Comments

It is a place that in guaranteed to play havoc with the olfactory glands of the passers-by. The unsightly land with nothing but garbage spread across a vast area, will induce dizziness and a throbbing headache in an average person with in a few minutes. Although the normal instincts of the citizens dictate them to avoid passing the toxic dump yard at all costs, there is a huge group of people who eke out a living from collecting ands selling ‘Bhangari’ (broken pieces of junk).

Life at dumpyard 2 by ~GMBAkash The suggester writes, "A perfect technique associated with a careful eye is a good mix to get photos like this. All of the elements are perfect... the wonderful angle, perfect exposure, and that crow right near her head. Her look emphasizes the poverty and suffering of these civilizations, making the picture even more intense and impactful. GMBAkash is the perfect reporter photographer."

What a photo. Technically really well done, but more than that it's stunning in its harsh and sad realism.

Technically gorgeous shot. Even better it tells an unusual story...not something straight out photojournalist student 101. Beautiful and moving all at once.
