Photography has opened my eyes although I do it mainly for the purpose of blogging and FB.<br /><br />I laughed and soon I was overcome with great sadness to read what you have written about your father and mother.

My dad had a similar incident when he was riding his scooter in Agra. Mom was the pilion rider and my elder sis was perched between them. Come a pothole and mom fell off the scooter. Dad did not realize and drove on. My sister who was very young started yelling and tugging. Dad stopped the scooter, realized his folly and went back to pick her up. He hadn't gone very far. Needless to say, he had to spend a lot of time placating her :).Rachnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02275266551382931603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558799463956912149.post-12649152113980088772012-05-13T07:46:45.696+05:302012-05-13T07:46:45.696+05:30Beautiful and such precious photos.
