Hard Life

Everytime I have been to the Mysore palace, I have seen these two at the palace gates. Its quite an irony - the grandeur of the palace with the (sometimes) really ridiculous lifestyle of the Maharajas in contrast to the abject poverty of these two coupled with loss of basic mobility. India indeed is a land of paradoxes.

good one suyog. its really sad.. but ur absolutely right. i like it in this pic that the man in front is turning away fm the camera, and ofcourse b/w rocks.
 
true, india is really a land of paradox!
nice capture here.
 
Sad too say but India is not the only country with such paradoxes.
 
Life can be very hard can't it? I bet these two can relate to the paradox of luxury for some and a very tough life for others.
 
This photo gets to me, especially because I am in a wheelchair myself, so I can relate to them.... great capture.
 
Its sad and nobody's doing anything about it.
 
A thoughtful picture.
