Faces of India – 191 Father and Son in Goa
Faces of India
a series through which I intend to portray the various characters of my country whom I met during my travels. I bring back souvenirs, frozen moments from my travels, why not some memories of people I have met and interacted during the travels. Faces of India is a weekly series in my blog since MARCH 2011. See more here…
A father giving his son the first lessons in swimming and that too in the beaches of Goa. The son looks so thrilled and so were all his family members in the beach who were waving out to him.
Below is the answer to the last week’s question: guess her job. She was the fueling attendant at one of the fuel stations in Vasco da Gama, Goa.
How sweet! The child looks secured in the hands of his father even though he doesn't know to swim… Isn't it faith!
Nicely captured indeed…… true faces of India…..
Beautiful picture 🙂
Nice to see this father and child. Great to know that you are working on a long term theme. I am doing a long term documentary on faith and shooting some of the interesting things people do in the religious congregations. While shooting the Faith :Ganga Aarti at Haridwar, I saw a father scooping water from the Ganga and giving his son to drink. It reminded me of my childhood. Really love the unalloyed love and affection showered in that moment. Thanks for reminding.
Cheers,
