I enjoy wandering our planet seeking to capture the human element and better understand the world in which we live.

Much has been written of India's rich environment, its vibrant colors, enticing aromas, and fabled history. Home to one-fifth of the world's population, it is one of the most religiously diverse nations in the world. It's a land of relative peace and tolerance. It's also a land of contradictions.

The photographs that follow were taken throughout India in an attempt to capture a certain dignity and integrity of the beings that dwell there.  In that vain I concentrated on a documentary style of photography, focusing on labor and portraits of different people.

 These images are some of those efforts…
