Lost Childhood


One of the shortlised photograph in lonely planet travel photo contest 2010 (http://www.lonelyplanet.com/win/gallery.cfm?affil=lpemail#Chandipur%20situated%20in%20Orissa%20is%20one%20of%20the%20most%20unique%20beaches%20in%20India.%20Sea%20water%20comes%20once%20a%20day)

is also one of my favourite photographs. The photograph was taken in 2007 on a family tour in an amazine beach of Chandipur Orissa. The photograph was published in people & Planet annual diary and finalist in photographer's forum photo contest 2011.

I personally like the contrast of life in this photograph. The fisherman in front struggles with his tough life and the children in a planyful mood in background completely ignorant of the harsh life.
