The term Hinduism also occurs sporadically in Sanskrit texts such as the later Rajataranginis of Kashmir (Hinduka, c. 1450), some 16th-18th century Bengali Gaudiya Vaishnava texts, including Chaitanya Charitamrita and Chaitanya Bhagavata, usually to contrast Hindus with Yavanas or Mlecchas.;;”-

hey Danny,

great work man! people who talk about style are quite clueless and
I think you’ve shown another side to your thought process with this series.
strong reportage and will get better as your eye and experience matures.

editing:
I would have left out 5, 6 and 11 from above–
and it’s not to say they arent good in their own rights, I felt it didn’t
connect visually quite as easily as the others. still, it’s a fantastic departure
from your portraits.

greetings from Canada.

Thanks for sharing this. I recently attended a workshop with Alex Webb in Munich. We had an intense portfolio feedback session as well on the first day. Very helpful. For me it was a great honor to meet a Magnum photographer in person. So much experience, so much to learn.
I would really like to meet a great reportage photographer like Abbas. Hopefully some more workshops to come – maybe in Germany one day?

Thanks Danny for sharing this with us. Great read. Loved the group shot photo. Magnum did a similar shot for their annual meeting many years ago where they held their cameras up to their faces. I’ll be back again and again to your blog.

Regards,
Gary

Must have been a fascinating experience, specially to have someone like Abbas guiding and teaching you all the time. I am sure there are some great lessons learned.

Thanks for the photographs as well.

@tutun: It’s not about changing ‘styles’… in fact, I don’t think it’s about styles. For me, it’s being open and flexible for other ways of seeing and capturing things. I strongly believe that’s how we evolve and grow.
