Why did I automatically assume this man is poor? Because he carries this heavy load? I notice he is wearing a lovely wedding ring. That’s what I marveled at most. Is he poor or just carrying his weight? (no pun intended)
Oh, yes … burdened. His face showcases the signs of years of hard work and discipline. Great photo, Joshi. Thought provoking and open to dialog. Well done, as always. : )
Great shot. The eyes tell a story. I imagine his discs compressed after so many years of carrying heavy burdens, but that he carries on because he must. Thanks for sharing.

This blog is a favorite. Great shot. The eyes tell a story. I imagine his discs compressed after so many years of carry heavy burdens, but he carries on because he must.
I have to say it; North Americans are too soft. There are many in this man’s age range who could not do what he’s still able to do all because of their cushy lifestyles.

This picture is telling about his pain

Great photo, beautiful conversion into B&W!

It is heartrending to see such aged people doing hard labour. The pain is so palpable!
Oh my heart sunk at the sight of this. What a powerful capture Joshi.
Truly is burdened!
Oh! ‘burdened’ is the apt title…. his eyes reflect the pain which he is bearing…. :-(
My neck hurts with sympathy pains but a beautiful photo nonetheless, Joshi.
Great message through great capture…… Nice work Joshi…….. Thanks for the share…..
Burdened but with a smile, nothing ever trumps hardwork :)
Tremendous burden, and work ethic.
The baggage

Great pause in time Joshi. Here’s to hoping he’s working at the down factory, or those are just empty aluminum cans in there :)
one can feel the intensity
Superb!

The face shows more burden than the weight on the head…… Lovely click.
oh! Tough life.
A portrait of the life. Much intensive!
Very expressive.
I see a strong man
As always expressive. Your photos speak more than words. :)
Courage, force…and so many facets, all in one shot. Congratulations!

Great <3
Powerful shot Joshi.
Very nice!
beautiful Daniel! Complimenti!:)
Another great capture, joshi!
I have to say it; North Americans are too soft. There are many in this man’s age range who could not do what he’s still able to do all because of their cushy lifestyles.
This old man is still going strong. Excellent capture and portrait!
Great expression…
Now that’s a burden I wish I could share with that man. His pain is visible. A great capture though.
Rich b/w photo. As you often capture – a story.
You always capture the moment with your photography. I just want to help him carry that sack. He shouldn’t have to be carrying that at his age.
You captured his expression very well. There is sadness in his eyes. Great image, Joshi.
A great portrait !
Beautiful capture in the effort! excellent portrait
Ah, this is such a sorry state for an old man. A great portrait though.
Wonderful reflection shot!
Have a nice week end!
Photographer Gil Zetbase
Excellent work Joshi!
great portrait
What am amazing picture!
whoaaa
Hard life very well captured
I’m an “old woman” by most standards (70) and wonder what would happen to me if I carried a load like that on my head????
A great capture
Oh! My head!
Heavy.
Such spirit is conveyed in this capture – amazing! :)
What an amazing shot. The look in his eyes is so striking, so sad, and you seemed to capture it perfectly. You are so incredibly talented! – rachel
and quite the burden that is, Joshi. Love the shot!
Beautiful photo. Was he happy or struggling with this burden?
Wonderful capture.
Awesome click; great caption!

Haunting… the need/majboori to be so overburdened at this age.
Great shot, as usual. You have captured his soul.
hugs
Brilliant shot.
Powerful shot Joshi ~ like the expression of this gentleman.
Wonderful, amazing!!

I am choked up by the clear messages in this photo. Vivid capture.

The burden balanced by the buoyant force from within…. Strived!
