[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
As far as practicable, I don't like transferring my load to porters at the railway stations and bus stands, esp. if the porter is an aged person. Being quite healthy myself, I feel shy if my luggage is on someone else's shoulders.

When I saw this white bearded porter carrying so much load on his head and shoulder, this was perhaps the reason that I took this photograph. Can't we do something to make life easier for such old people?

Hi Sushant,

Good note! Shot brings out the moment. Nothing more to say. You have brought out everything.

Technically - you could have done with more DOF. The area behind is a little overexposed.
