Bunking college



Bunking college
Originally uploaded by travelling writer.
This was one of my published photographs in Bangalore Vijay Times. The story was on bunking classes in College.

I was already on an assignment to a popular women’s college in the city when I was told to make a photograph for this feature story. I was actually there to make a photo-essay on a charity run being organised by them. Then a passing glance at a corridor and the urge in my mind to experiment and get a non-cliche image of bunking classes made me visualize this frame as I saw those legs and the college bag rested in the lap. Till that I do not know whose legs are those.

Open to critiques

    Nishant, nice photograph. On a similar theme, you can highlight the loss of productivity in corporates too by stepping out inw working hours, that too accompanied by smoking most of the time..
