The Boys...

These two boys materialized out of,seemingly nowhere.And they both stood still for a very long time.They were neither with the cattle,nor were they playing(the elder one had an inflated football bladder under his arm).
I was mesmerized by the younger ones eyes and his running nose.
I am not happy with the composition,but wanted to share these fiery eyes against the stark landscape of the dusty wintery morning.

He didnt get picked

Close to Purulia town is the river Kansawati.I drove one misty morning to its banks.All I saw were the Banks,the river bed was mostly dry.
The landscape was pretty much arid and dusty.With cattle being led in search of grazing land.
There I encountered this shepherd. He was sporting the team India cap.
He had paused to gather a straggling lamb,every member of his team mattered.
