Future Navigators

Description

This shot was taken near a sandhead in the river Ganges. These youngsters are the little ones of the local fisherman community trying out their luck in their future occupation. The concentration is noticable on the face of the boy with the paddle to keep the boat steady. And the jolly one singing the note of his hearts content in the open expanse with his head covered with a scarf printed with the Indian tricolor. The lively mood of this frame made me capture it immidietly.
