ジョン・スタンメイヤーさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ジョン・スタンメイヤーInstagram)「We were driving along a small road not far from the Yamuna river in Uttar Pradesh near Chitrakoot⁩⁩ when on my right was a small village and a lot of noise. Entering, we learned it was an encampment of blacksmiths, members of the lower caste who often do the more complicated, unpleasant labor. As always, wherever we went across north India, we were welcomed with kindness and chai. Nomadic, more than one hundred women, men and children belonging to 20-30 families, all lived together in tents, knowing their time would be brief here until moving further along the river for work. This image never made it in the magazine story, and while I never like any photograph I make, this one I will always remember for the sounds of clanging metal everywhere, the kindness of everyone who welcomed us. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ India’s Daunting Challenge: There’s Water Everywhere, And Nowhere - Chapter 8 of the @outofedenwalk, my latest story in the August 2020 issue of @natgeo magazine. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @natgeo @outofedenwalk #walkingindia #edenwalk #india #uttarpradesh⁩ #chitrakoot⁩ #blacksmith #caste #castesystem #laborers #tree #children #families」7月31日 11時35分
