Mumbai (Bombay)

Photographs of Mumbai (Bombay), India, including Dharavi, the Worli Sealink Bridge, Bandra, Malabar Hill, Chowpatty Beach, Crawford Market, Mahim Bay, Juhu Beach and the Ganesh Chaturthi festival. If Mumbai isn’t the craziest city on Earth I don’t know what is. I love it though, due to the spirit and warmth of the people. Mumbai is 20+ million people crammed into a landscape of highrises, ocean beaches, bridges, slums, bays, stadiums, hills, glamorous shopping malls, jewelry dealers, and garbage dumps. It would take a lifetime to really know and understand Mumbai. India’s financial capital and slum capital, nowhere in India is income inequality more apparent. There are individuals in Mumbai with more wealth than ten million of their fellow Indians. Barefoot girls panhandle at busy intersections amid Ferraris and Rolls-Royces.

Air pollution in Mumbai, India is acute, with some reports suggesting breathing the air is akin to smoking a pack or two of cigarettes a day. The city's 20 million people and countless vehicles, factories and construction sites create a thick pall over the city on many days.

The much lauded recycling program in the Dharavi slum in Mumbai, India is not all positives. Here children work in a dark, dirty, poorly ventilated room dismantling old shoes and sandals, while their taskmaster sits in a chair all day wearing a face mask to guard against the rubber particles and the constant exhaust fumes from the busy road outside the shop. Here he is receiving a blessing. The bulk of the recycling in Dharavi is plastic, and children work in many of those shops as well.
