This one was shot at 5 am in the morning, on a street in powai. The sun was still shifting in the bed, struggling to wake up while the Night retreated back to its shell.

I realize as I look back at my work that I do tend to focus on capturing what I miss in Mumbai - Green Vistas, Colorful trees, Wildlife, Fishing - here is one more, Empty Streets.What is it that you miss in your city? Do drop in your comments ! wherever you are.

I miss roads like these!:)
this is captured beautifully!
Like you I too miss a tranquil period on the streets of the city. One has to hold one's life in one's hand while navigating them all through the day -- even side streets are busy with vehicles whizzing past all the time.
that was a nice shot. Between you and Magiceye, I get my fill of Mumbai nostalgia :)
there is something in that photo... somehow it speaks a lot..
A great one indeed... looks as if the photo is talking...

This was a handheld shot, while i waited to go for a photowalk with friends, early morning 5 am. The settings are there in the post. If you have specific questions, happy to answer.
Great pic. Like one of my friends described it...a time when we were car-free and hence carefree..
@Arun - Car Free = Care Free... wow. Well said.
this snap has a surreal feel about it. hard to make out whether its night or day. the contrast changes are nicely done.
