Blue

For me the colour blue will now always be associated with my city Mumbai which turns blue every monsoon. The urban poor neatly pack their blue tarpaulin post the rains and bring it out just before the the showers start. An aerial view of Mumbai city every monsoon is this is large patches.

Blue is not as much the sky or the water... blue is poverty, security, and a season.
