Living on the Edge, by Abhiroop Ghosh

The beauty of mountain changes with every curve. Every new bend brings a surprise. In one such turn I found this man in a lamenting state. The smoke and his posture seemed that an accident has just taken place. However, the roads were repaired when I clicked my shutter and found the man looking down at the gorge with his hand on his head. I took the picture from a running car, as I couldn’t let go off the moment from being captured by me.
