[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
As a tradition the Rajasthani People keep water for the birds.
The deserts of Rajasthan i.e. The Thar Desert can be very unforgiving to the life in Rajasthan as the summer temperatures soar upto 50 degs Centigrade.
The tradition to keep water for the pleasant and beautiful visitors is thought to be good will and people are said to be blessed :)

If you happen to visit Rajasthan or for that matter any where in India you'll find people keeping water where ever in their reach for the birds to get blessed :)

When I asked the locals they replied by telling me how they pity the birds in the scorching heat and offer them water.

hi vishal ... very good framing and clever use of pp ... the subject stands against the b&w background due to its mellow colors ... thanks for sharing

Strange but nice the selective desaturation. The water pot is made of simple things but looks so elegant. An interesting note too!
