Wash Day Blues

You think you have wash problems? ..... check out the dhobi ghat in Mumbai where thousands of clothes are hand washed every day, dried, ironed and sent back to the customer in an amazing and somewhat disorganised operation that can only be done in India. Most tourists stop at the overhead bridge overlooking the dhobi ghat to take their photographs but of course I wanted to get right in to the middle of the action. So after a "small donation" to a doorman at one of the entrances I got in and captured a wonderful sequence of images throughout the large complex.
More images here.
