Tag: High Rise

From up high, Mumbai

Dear readers, I apologize for not being as consistent as I used to be and would have loved being. Honestly, after pulling a 8 hour shift and another in travelling, the energy left in me, is not much. Hence, the delay.

I am also guilty of being inconsistent in posting for the Weekly Challenges on wordpress, so when today, when I came across the prompts of Dense and Atop, there was this one shot, that came to my mind.

It is old, a year old almost, shot from one of the floors of a high rise, during my internship days.

slums and high rise buildings sea ships and the sky, Mumbai, India

This photo reminds me of contrast. What do you see in this photo? I would like to know 🙂

Cheers!!

Glimpses of Mumbai – 200 M above earth – 2

It has been quite some time that I haven’t posted the photos. Here I am, back with the promised photos.

Its easy to see miles after miles into the city from the vantage point, atop a 51 storied building. Once you get there, you can see, that yes, the city is growing, rising skywards, and that that the slums are diminishing by the hour. The slum dwellers are shifted to newly constructed  slum rehab towers and on the hence vacant land, come up skyscrapers. I guess now this is how we shall define development, the phase of construction, when slums are converted to high rise towers. Squalor and luxury, opposites together, C’est la vie.

These are the last of the photos that were taken from the internship site. As per the posts, there are still two places to publish. So, stay tuned, for next iteration of Glimpses Of Mumbai 🙂

Cheers!!

Glimpses of Mumbai – 200 m above earth – 1

Hi there readers,

It has been quite sometime since my last post. Have been keeping busy due to the internship.
There’s an advantage while you are interning on a realty project. Now a days, most of the projects are high rise ones,  so is mine. The following shots have been taken in a Mumbai suburb, from about 200m above the earth.  I hope you like the view.

Cheers!!
