Memories...

Posted by Pavan Kaul (Mumbai, India) on 13 April 2011 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.

Dear Pavan, how nice to hear from you after quite a while! And this is such a heartwarming image to admire!!! Can't tell you how I'm charmed by the pic and inspired by your selected quote! Put it in a slightly different way, it's because we love something that we hold on to its memory, and we'll never lose it as long as we let it live in our heart... Best regards to you and yours!

AMH from Buenos Aires, Argentina

thank you very much for your words Pavan, it is interesting that a person profecional in filmic display (share) your photos, that speaks of a pretty generous spirit, that you comment on our photos and we all learn from everyone: with respect, with love =) .
your picture today is very nice, I represent a family to see me like the women's movement with the child, and the light that holds the boy.
with respect to the latter if it covers the light of your hand, it seems that he is looking at the woman taking the child or that looking at you (besides yours) is good. I send you a big kiss. Alejandra

It's lovely to talk to you again Pavan, and what a wonderfully relaxed and beautiful frame that you present here. The juxtaposition of stillness and movement, of light and shadow play, of fluidity and elegance work so well here. A wonderfully observed frame. You always have such a creative flair, an eye for the frame that offers us such visual dynamism in your presentations. A joy to view and thought provoking.
