EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Anindito Mukherjee, we witness a heartwarming scene unfolding on the bustling streets of Delhi. A humble dog finds solace and respite from the scorching heat as it perches itself over a drinking water basin along a road in the old quarters of Delhi. The image beautifully encapsulates the resilience and adaptability of animals amidst urban chaos. Despite being surrounded by noise and commotion, this canine has found its own oasis, where it can quench its thirst and find momentary peace. Delhi's old quarters are known for their rich history and vibrant culture, but they also serve as home to numerous stray animals who navigate these busy streets daily. This photograph serves as a gentle reminder that even in such challenging circumstances, compassion can be found in small acts like providing access to clean drinking water. Anindito Mukherjee's lens captures not just an animal seeking relief but also highlights societal issues surrounding animal welfare. The juxtaposition between the dog's serene presence against the backdrop of chaotic city life prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards these innocent creatures who share our world. This powerful image is a testament to both human-animal coexistence and the ability of photography to evoke empathy within us all.
