9th: Laundry on Balcony*
Old City - Lahore
by

Lahore, Pakistan

A woman in old city is washing, rinsing and spreading clothes on balcony railing ... to dry. This is a common practice here, as thickly populated houses are small but multi-storied with hardly any open space to wash clothes, comfortably.

The shot was taken from the narrow road, besides the house, composing the subject on the second floor.

Great shot, Zahid! As like your comment on the brick/fungus shot, I've got a shot very similar to this one but I think yours does a much better job of emphasizing this type of scene.

Nicely captured shot of daily urban life, Zahid. I like the sense of movement you captured as well, and lovely architecture. Helen
