On the edge of River Indus at Sann I found this young boy pushing his boat and himself to the safety of ground. For years I had wanted this type of frame: Single boy, preferably without shirt to show poverty as well as freedom; a single boat in the frame and low light conditions. It was a moment I wanted and I got.

Dangerous work, Karachi

A "pranch" fixer balances himself on a construction site at 12th floor without any safety concerns whatsover. The construction industry in Pakistan is lax when it comes to providing proper facilities to labours, causing many deaths annually. As these sites are never checked by authorities concerned, builders and contractors keep no measures in place.

I visited Bilal Colony today (16th Dec 2012) to see for myself the living conditions there. As expected, much of the area cannot be photographed because Pashtuns traditionally shy away from photographers for fear that their women may be photographed.
Another reason is the illegal drugs and liqor business which is rampant in these areas. Off course everything happens under the watchful eyes of Police. However, recently an operation was conducted by Police and agencies and many drug peddlers and target killers were caught red handed.
