Despite our locked up at home status, we could be in a worse state. Like this chap I photographed non digitally in India in 2000. He spent 40 minutes like this with no sign of any breathing assistance....to earn about 3O cents in small coins. What I call, à super tough gig.

Keep well and cheerful!

An amazing photo Diana. How hard life must be for these people to perform like this for so little reward. I dread to think of the health problems he will have in later life. Well captured and I like the title. Stay safe and keep smiling.

Quel spectacle ! J'espère qu'il a reçu assez d'argent pour se nourrir et nourrir sa famille !L'Inde est vraiment un pays spécial ! La vie est vraiment dure pour les pauvres là bas. Je ne connais personne qui le ferait pour 30 centimes.
Bonne soirée

A shocking image although after 20 days of confinement I could be 50 minutes in that position in order to get out. Warm greetings, Anton

L'Inde est vraiment un pays étonnant, dans tous les sens du terme. Une excellent photo documentaire.
