Tucked safely, a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

By this time, TE friends must have guessed that children are my favourite subjects. As soon as this child saw me aiming my camera towards her, she partly hid her behind her mother but couldn't hide her curiosity altogether. The intrigue in her eyes is what makes me like this picture.

Expression in the kid's face is awesome. Great one Sushant. The bondage between parents and kids in India (atleast the one I've experience) is quite high. Parents will have a possessive affection to their kids and its effect is very high when they are far far away. I've seen the impact of being with emotional attachment and staying away. Dozens of parents I've met here with their grown up children living abroad are not able to cope their separation with their children. IS there a remedy ? is there a better way to handle this ?

I guess its a million dollar question !
cheers

so cute ! the glance is intriguing indeed !
i think that croping a big part on the left of the photo (till the left hand of the mom) would give more impact to the photo, more intimacy with the mom and the head of the girl not in the middle, what do you think about it ?
