AMADER KAJER LOKER PORIBAR! Oops, I better translate. This is our house-helper and her family. (L to R) Shaheen’s son, Sultan, Shaheen (our house-helper), her daughter, Pinky (Sultana), and Shaheen’s Mother
They are standing in the doorway of Shaheen’s one-room dwelling in one of the many Bihari camps in Dhaka. Sultan was dressed up to celebrate the festival, Muharram. The festival commemorates the martyrdom of the prophet Mohammed’s grandson- Hazrat Imam Hussein.
SHARMIN wondering what the elephant will do next! I of course couldn’t tell these girls apart. They were a part of the photo club I went to Moulovibazar with to photograph, tea gardens, birds at a haor, and waterfall. It was too late in the season and the waterfalls was barely a trickle so didn’t go see it. Also it was too early to see the Winter birds at the haor, but all in all it was a good trip. I hope to join them for a trip to another haor in Northeastern Bangladesh in February, when many Winter birds will be residing.
