Photo taken by @stevemccurryofficial // I took this picture of a tailor in Porbandar, India, carrying his ruined sewing machine in a monsoon-flooded street. The city had been underwater for a week. At first I was a bit reluctant to get into the water because of dead animals and other debris floating in the streets. After trying to photograph from a boat, it became clear that the only way to cover the flood was to wade in. I spent days wandering in water up to my waist. When the picture appeared on the cover of the National Geographic Magazine, the machine's manufacturer sent him a new one.
