I took these pictures less than a year ago. Then, it was known as the Gateway to India and the Taj Hotel. It’s currently under siege by terrorists.
This kid makes his living with his cobra. He waits until you take his picture and then tries to shake you down for money. I didn’t pay. He works directly in front of the Taj Hotel. I wonder if he survived?
