  • 19th September, 2012, Chandni Chowk,  Hardayal Municipal Public Library in Old Delhi plays host to many stray cats.<br />
This Raj-era library, was instituted by the British in 1862, when it was called the Institute Library. Now housing some 8,000 rare books (of a total of 1,70,000) in a building nearly a century old it has close to 1,200 members and gets several hundred visitors a day. The rare books include a 1677 edition of Sir Walter Raleigh's History of the World and a Herodotus volume in the original Greek from 1826. But these books, like the library, are currently facing a threat. It has been four months since the library received salaries for its staff, let alone development funds and its feared it will be closed.<br />

<br />
Sleeping in the outdoors is common in Asia due to a warmer climate and the fact that personal privacy for sleep is not so culturally ingrained as it is in the West. New Delhi (where most of these images were taken) is a harsh city both in climate and environment and for those working long hours, often in hard manual labour, sleep and rest is something fallen into when exhaustion overwhelms, no matter the place or circumstance. Then there are the homeless, in Delhi figures for them from Government and NGO sources vary wildly from 25,000 to more than 10 times that. Others public sleepers may simply be travellers having a siesta along the way.<br />

  • Near Pushkar, Rajasthan,  India, 07/11/2013.  Camel herder Bomram sits at a camp fire in the early morning in the desert near Pushkar, Rajasthan, India on the 7th November 2013<br />
<br />
Pushkar Mela , one of Asia's (if not the world’s) largest camel fairs occurs annually during the Hindu month of Kartik (October-November) in the small desert town of Pushkar in Rajasthan, India. Semi-nomadic tribal people with hordes of cattle, camels and horses materialise out of the desert and descend upon the town setting up a vast camp on the outskirts. It runs concurrently with the festival of Kartik Poornima which honours the God Brahma. Its celebrated with particular fervor in Pushkar because it hosts one of the very few Brahma temples in India and culminates with thousands of devout Hindus taking a ritual bath in the sacred Pushkar Lake. Its this melange of pilgrims, musicians, magicians, acrobats, folk dancers, traders, comedians, ‘sadhus’ and tribals that creates a uniquely colourful spectacle transforming the usually sleepy town into an astonishing cultural phenomenon. <br />

  • 6th May 2015, Kathmandu, Nepal.  Ruku Khattri Chhetri (89) in Ramkot village, near Kathmandu, on the 6th May 2015.<br />
<br />
This mother of 7 lived through the last major earthquake to hit Nepal 81 years ago in 1934. She remembers it clearly, she was 8 years old at that time and was carrying her little 3 year old brother outside in the fields. When the earthquake struck she kneeled down and shielded him to protect him, the ground and nearby buildings shook violently  she saw a cloud of dust rise 'like fog in winter'  from nearby Bimdungar village caused by all the falling buildings, it happened very fast and many people died. She stayed where she was until her grandfather came and found them - as her parents were not available. Her father had jumped from the second story of their house during the earthquake to save himself and broken his leg.<br />
<br />
During the 2015 earthquake she was outside her house and fell to the ground when the earth shook, she found herself covered in dust from her house that had collapsed behind her , she crawled away crying for help and was soon rescued by neighbours. When asked about the future she said  ‘I fear more suffering is to come since I am still alive’ .‘If another earthquake comes I want to die fast, I don’t want to be injured’. She lost one eye to cancer and is all but blind in the other. <br />
 <br />
An earthquake with magnitude 7.8 occurred near Lamjung, Nepal, 50 miles northeast of the capital Kathmandu at 06:11:26 UTC on Apr 25, 2015. The capital has seen considerable devastation including the nine-story Dharahara Tower, one of Kathmandu's landmarks built by Nepal's royal rulers as a watchtower in the 1800s and a UNESCO-recognised historical monument. It was reduced to rubble and there were reports of people trapped. Portions of historic buildings in the World Heritage gazetted site of Patan have also been destroyed as well as many buildings in the old city. <br />

Sleeping in the outdoors is common in Asia due to a warmer climate and the fact that personal privacy for sleep is not so culturally ingrained as it is in the West. New Delhi (where most of these images were taken) is a harsh city both in climate and environment and for those working long hours, often in hard manual labour, sleep and rest is something fallen into when exhaustion overwhelms, no matter the place or circumstance. Then there are the homeless, in Delhi figures for them from Government and NGO sources vary wildly from 25,000 to more than 10 times that. Others public sleepers may simply be travellers having a siesta along the way.<br />

  • 30th April 2015, Sindhupal Chowk District, Nepal. Manmaya Bharati (86)  in Bharatigaun village, Sindhupal Chowk District, on the 30th April 2015. She lived through the last major earthquake to hit Nepal 81 years ago in 1934, she was not old enough to remember it but was later told her father carried her on his shoulders to flee.<br />
<br />
Sindhupalchowk District has seen around 2100 deaths as of 3rd May 2015 which is nearly a third of all fatalities recorded in Nepal from the earthquake with magnitude 7.8 that occurred near Lamjung, Nepal, 50 miles northeast of the capital Kathmandu at 06:11:26 UTC on Apr 25, 2015. The capital has seen considerable devastation including the nine-story Dharahara Tower, one of Kathmandu's landmarks built by Nepal's royal rulers as a watchtower in the 1800s and a UNESCO-recognised historical monument. It was reduced to rubble and there were reports of people trapped. Portions of historic buildings in the World Heritage gazetted site of Patan have also been destroyed as well as many buildings in the old city. <br />
