It is this fluid, amorphous, ephemeral and elusive visual that Kabir tries to hold in his rectangular frame. It is a frame heavy with the burden of its task. The rivers that float like a gossamer across the green delta hold untold stories. Tales of strife and endurance. Of the fullness of life. Of abundance ebbed, and anger unleashed.

A set of dramatic and disturbing photographs by Pathshala student Taslima Akhter reminds us of realities of this modern day slavery. The minimum wages for garment workers continue to be US $ 24 per month.

Reminder: submit entries for Chobi Mela VI. Entries already piling in. The festival begins on the 21st January 2011. So we invite dreamers and wanderers and the soulful troubadour, to ignite our imagination. To provoke and goad us out of our slumber. To fly in the wings of our wishes, and glide in the sea of hope. To enchant and entice and mesmerise. To take us on flights of fancy, to fling us in the face of the storm, to hurl us into unchartered journeys, to rejoice in the recklessness of passion, to singe in the heat of rage, to float in the weightlessness of love. To dream.

Barcelona encounters: The company of the likes of Reza Deghati, Susan Meiselas, Chris Boot and Robert Pledge would be a delightful treat for any photographer. To be taken through the streets of Barcelona was an added bonus. The conversation over dinner, ranging from the Iranian Revolution to behind the scenes stories at Magnum, was treasure to cherish.

Tracing Freedom: Driving ten hours daily for 102 days evokes a type of meditative state and a sense of freedom from domestic concerns. Tom's Land Rover was not only a rolling studio with its own photo backdrop, but also a canvas for exploring his personal challenges on route.
