Wow ! What a spectacular exchibition of photographs taken all over Goa by
Rajan Parrikar.
He is not a professional photographer, at least that is what I believe, but
the photographs are
excellent, in composition, subject, background etc. His love for Goa shows
in his comprehensive coverage of various parts of Goa. This is a must see for
our Goencar bhau
(including me) who think that Goa starts and ends with the relatively narrow
and crowded
districts close to the ocean. Rajan has journeyed to the interior of Goa as
well as the coastal districts and chosen a wide variety of subjects to
photograph. There is Tambde Surla temple, there are the remains of the ancient
port built by the Kadambas along the
Sal river, there are portraits of ordinary people in the hinterland.
It was wonderful talking to Rajan in whom I found a fellow Goaphile who is so
passionate about Goa, I asked him if he was going to publish a book with his
photographs. He told me that he was planning a Cyber gallery. Congratulations
on a job well done Rajan.
