Helping Hand Photo

Photographer’s Note

The small boy lending a helping hand to quench thirst of the cow. The cow is considered very sacred in India and is refered as mother. People respect cow a lot in India and give food to them every day.

Hi Ashit, nice shot. I suppose we don't see this kind of scene here in NZ, notes is helpful. I like the sharpness in this photo, I can clearly see the dirt on the boy's leg. Good composition and Well done. TFS

Claude says "a common scene". True but difficult to capture as the cows don't do what you want (Tried it myself several times and it still hasn't worked).
Congrats

Excellent interactive scene you've captured. Very good colors and I like the fact that the boy has his back on you...enhanced the candidness of the scene.
