It makes me feel thankful, honored and excited. ?
I took this image just before coming from my village to Indore. An hour before my journey, I was free and wanted to take some photos with my phone so that I can see it later. I went out to take picture of my house and that’s when I noticed this little boy of our neighbour, who was playing with the water. It was summer and what could be better than getting refresh with water.
