*EYES*, a photo from West Bengal, East

Photographer's Note

Nothing to say about this photograph.I shoot in a school which is called ANANDAPATH(joyful learning).
The ANANDAPATH or joyful learning package was initiated by the govt.of west bengal(INDIA)in 1996.It is aimed at making education joyful and school attractive for the poorest of the poor.The idea was reach out to homeless/poor and working childrenwho r unlikely to come to school if they do not find it interesting.ANANDAPATH aims to make the school and its surroundings attractive by providing facilities for water & electricity,decortating the classroom etc.There is emphasis on the use of song and dance to make learning enjoyable.

Nice snaps. I believed the scanned copy has taken it toll as there is a lack of sharpness. But good eye contact and also the mod.

Cheers!!

Hi Subir, I love the photojournalism aspect of this shot. nice pair of eyes among many looking at your lens. to push the level towards perfection one would ask for the complete faces on the either margins, but still, this is a quality take.
TFS, Arnab

You've got some interesting photos here Subir. This one is particuarly interesting. I noticed that it's a scanned image, but it could do with a little sharpening and maybe a little cropping to give the 'letterbox' look to it.

Thanks
