This image is from a recent trip to India.<br />
I was there shooting a campaign for Thare<br />
Machi Education, a small charity from my<br />
hometown. Thare Machi create educational<br />
DVDs in local languages to educate people on<br />
basic health and they will soon be opening an<br />
Indian branch in Delhi.<br />
When I made this image I was photographing a<br />
family who had watched one of the lessons on<br />
the importance of using a bed net some time<br />
ago. As a result, this man and his family all had<br />
bed nets to protect them from diseases spread<br />
by mosquitoes and other insects.<br />
The image was taken when visiting the<br />
Panchantala slums in Kolkata which lie on and<br />
around the railway tracks. This was one of<br />
the most challenging and yet most rewarding<br />
environments that I have worked in and I would<br />
love to shoot another campaign for a non-profit<br />
organisation. The charities campaign will be<br />
launched in April in the House of Lords, along<br />
with my first solo exhibition of photographs.<br />
