entry description
A sculptor engrosses himself in a hard day's work as the golden evening light glistens at the dust flying around him. This picture is of Hiralal from Khuldabad(Maharashtra, India), who like his family, has spent the last 20 years of his life sculpting figurines. While his job is demanding and dangerous—I remember him telling me how even a second of distraction can lead to injury—he works unfazed, happy to have a visitor admire his workmanship.about the photographer
