“I recently returned from
Kashmir where I worked for
over a month. In the news
these days, the majority of
the things you hear about
Kashmir are all about con-
flict. Through my photos
and stories, however, I like to
show a different side of the
region, one that focuses on
the daily life of the people,
their families, and their cul-
ture. While in Srinagar, the
capital, I spent my time visit-
ing one of the main bus stops
to capture the comings and
goings of the locals. Some
were travelling home, some
were rushing to work, others
were coming to receive med-
ical care. Through my lens, I
was able to see their real life.”
