When I walked the city center of Dhaka, many cycle rickshaws overtook me. Most of them didn't care about me because they were busy to pedal. Yet some rickshaw wallahs cast an eye on me. The man in this photo was one of them.

The rickshaw wallah looked back at me through the chink of the canvas top of his cycle rickshaw. And he smiled. Like other, his cycle rickshaw was also decorative. They referred to the decoration as 'Rickshaw Art'.
