19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Father & Son

A father and son sitting by a window in second class in an Indian Railways train from Pune to Mumbai. I was struck by the way the father sat, with his son on the lap. That could have been me, or it could have been you. In a way, the turned away faces lead you to identify with the bond better. The open window, seat number at the back all are like whiffs of memory from a personal experience.
