EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by R H Productions/Robert Harding, we are transported to the enchanting backwaters of Kerala, India. The image showcases a typical scene in this region where canals and rivers serve as roadways for transportation. A man with incredible strength and skill is seen pushing a boat forward using a long pole. With each determined push, he effortlessly propels the traditional wooden vessel through the calm waters of Kerala's backwater system. This age-old method of propulsion, known as punting, has been practiced for generations in these waterways. The vibrant colors of the surroundings add an extra layer of beauty to this picturesque scene. Lush greenery lines the banks while clear blue skies reflect on the tranquil water surface. It is evident that nature plays an integral role in shaping everyday life here. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into the unique way of life that exists along Kerala's backwaters. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modern advancements, there are still places where tradition and simplicity prevail. For those seeking travel destinations off-the-beaten-path, Kerala beckons with its serene landscapes and cultural richness. Whether it be exploring its intricate network of canals or immersing oneself in local customs and traditions, this region promises an unforgettable experience for all who venture here.
