About The Artwork
I was up early to go to the Sangam, location of the epic Kumbh Mela in Allahabad to see what was there and if there was anything meaningful to shoot for my Chakra series. I grabbed a motorised rickshaw for the trip from my overnight stay room in complete darkness; the road was very bumpy, not great for the equipment, and I couldn't even see much when I arrived. Eventually the light did come up and I was able to shoot several shots including some early morning bathers and others doing various rituals and pujas at the confluence of the Ganges and Yamuna rivers, considered sacred by Hindus. That included this guy reading some scriptures with his beautifully coordinated orange attire.

Australia
I was born in Trinidad and Tobago and travelled all over the world with my parents before settling in The UK for my education. I went to Sherborne School and Reading University before moving to London to be a photographic assistant to many different photographers including Anthony Blake and Spencer Rowell. Then I moved to Australia to further my career in photography that is now 35 years long as a commercial and art photographer in Sydney. I have had several exhibitions including Transformation 1992, Lifeforce 1996, Sahaja 2000, and have completed new spiritual works, The Chakras, 2014 that are shown here on Saatchi Art. I now also teach photography with Alfonso Photo tours in Sydney. I have two websites, Chrisljonesphoto.com for commercial and sahajaprints.com for prints.
