On his birthday

Last Monday we celebrated garndpa's birthday. The patriarch turned 86 and seemed pleasantly surprised with the love and affection we showered on him. Hope we could show him the same respect and love all through the year. My cousin wrote a poem for him, which probably he liked the most. He is a poet and writer among several other things you see. While clicking, I hit on the idea of making a series on him. The lens sure lends some different perspective to the people we take for granted. Tagore was right, first capture the beauty in your own backyard before venturing far and wide.
