EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Adnan Abidi, we witness the hustle and bustle of daily life in New Delhi. The image portrays a brave commuter standing on the doorsteps of a moving train, defying both gravity and convention. As the train rushes through the city's chaotic landscape, this daring individual embodies the spirit of resilience and adaptability that characterizes many residents of India's bustling capital. The blurred background hints at the speed at which life moves in this metropolis, while also emphasizing the risk taken by our subject. With one hand firmly gripping onto a pole for support, their other arm stretches outwards as if embracing both adventure and uncertainty simultaneously. This moment frozen in time encapsulates not only an act of necessity but also a testament to human determination. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how transportation becomes more than just a means to get from point A to point B; it becomes an integral part of people's lives and identities. It highlights how individuals navigate their surroundings with grace amidst chaos, finding balance between tradition and progress. Through Adnan Abidi's lens, we are transported into an urban world where commuters become acrobats on wheels - fearless souls who dare to challenge norms while navigating through life's journey.
