Upon leaving the beach, I saw a man praying facing west towards the Kabaa in Mecca.
For me, this was a sight to behold. He appeared transfixed in worship, undisturbed by the presence of the gathering crowds.
Wherever I went in Karachi my camera came with me. I was captivated by the sights, sounds & multitude of textures. What I saw as strange & even simply beautiful to the locals it was part of the mundane, daily routine. This imperfect yet authentic & real Karachi was starring right at me. You used to be a part of this nation but it’s no longer yours. Yet still somehow our lives intertwined.
