Photographer's Note
This is the 1st photo of my series on Haji Ali - a shrine in the middle of the Indian Ocean, linked by a narrow causeway from Mumbai.
Haji Ali was a wealthy merchant who renounced all his belongings before he took the pilgrimage to Mecca. The tomb itself is over 800 years old.
The 10 minute walk into the ocean can be done only at low tides and its very windy out there, you could get blown away if you were light....like what happened in my next snap.
