Son of the soil—1 of 4
The picture (part of a series) was taken in a remote village called Amirpur at South 24 Parganas District, West Bengal, India, where one of the chief sources of livelihood is agriculture. The essence of these people is their simple approach to life. They might have to bear the brunt of extreme poverty—yet they are happy and content by nature.
