Black-and-white Photography: Life under the Bridge in Calcutta
In this striking black-and-white photograph by Florian Schmale, we see homeless individuals performing their daily hygiene rituals in the shade of the mighty Howrah Bridge in Calcutta. The small ghat by the river provides a quiet and peaceful enclave amidst the bustling city of millions. The composition captures the contrast between the hectic urban life and the serene existence of the people who live there. The monochromatic palette enhances the emotional depth and atmosphere of the scene.
