A vanishing world.
Shripad Bhende of Talarna, a hamlet in Goa, tends his buffaloes, a life of quiet dignity shaped by the land and a way of being that is fast dissolving.

Such a touching n beautifully captured photo.
Congratulations Rajan Parrikar n thank you for sharing this Wonder with me
Thank you, Maite.
The portrait is spectacular ! I wonder how the pupil seems so dilated ?
Sanjeev-bab: I didn’t change any of his features. My guess is, either it is caused by cataract or some other medical condition.
Admire all three of these. Thank you, Rajan.
Thank you, Richard.
A land of quiet dignity, indeed, that is fast disappearing. You have captured the very soul of Shri Bhende. Thank you, Rajan-bab.
Antonio-bab: Obrigado.
So glad to see we can post comments again amigo! The emerald green of Goa is matching my area at this time due to all the rain and hi temps.
The facial portrait of the man is superb!!! Such character!
Amigo Dan: Great to hear from you. Yes, Goa in the monsoons is a carpet of green.
Your photos always amazed me!
Thanks, Dr. Massey.
