Photographer's Note
The river is the Ganga and the location is Agrwadwip, near Katwa in West Bengal, INDIA. On the other side of the river it is Nadia. The photo was taken on August 28, 2010 using a Nokia 5130c-2 cellphone.
Floods and soil erosion have been a major issue in Malda, Dinajpur, Murshidabad and some other districts of West Bengal. Thousands of people have already been effected. The entire socio- economical structure have been changed because of the soil erosion around the river. It has become a regular phenomena in all these areas.
I was there at the end of the monsoon. I crossed the river with these people just to get an experience.
