a crowded, busy, and yet somehow still relaxed scene. Strangely I feel no fear for the pup. It seems like a place without rules, but still they all seem to find their place and fit in. I'm sure there are lots of rules, but traffic rules sure don't seem to be one of them, unless it is "go slow". I like the colors and the leading lines of the road
Go slow is the last thing they will do Piet, they drive at crazy speeds with little regard for the consequences. This picture was taken almost in the same spot, you can see the right hand side wheel, as we look at it, is light on the road as he swerves through the barriers and around us. The pedestrians and other road users have to fend for themselves, the trucks slow down for no one.
My lens was zoomed to 60mm and the picture isn't cropped at all so you can see how close it was. You soon get used to it... you become as fatalistic as the Indians
