Delhi is dirty and congested, the air pollution is among the worst in the world, the poverty is depressing and yet I had a great time taking photos across Delhi. I was moved by the enthusiasm I met with in the streets of Old Delhi. Wherever you go in India people like to have their photo taken. The back alleys of Old Delhi in particular were a lot of fun. These photos were all taken in 2007. A lot may have changed since then, for better and for worse.

The street south of Old Delhi's Jami Mashid is lined up with auto parts and accessories stores. But try getting there with a car.
Left and Middle: These guys wanted to pose for a photo. I obliged and it turned out quite well.

A goat and an ex-goat. I liked the fact that the goats were decorated.
I hesitate about taking photos like this one and the one below, but I also want to capture what the city and the streets look like and this is part of reality.
This was my last photo in Delhi (and India). I surreptitiously gave him some change, or so I thought, but once again I instantly found myself surrounded by a dozen or so people begging for money.
