PICTURESQUE GOA
'Evening shadows make me blue'
View of the bridge over River Chapora
at sunset, from the "Mannos at Guddem, Siolim, Bardez, Goa
As is evident in the picture, the battered bicycle has formed a part of the the landscape. It belongs to the old fisherman who has cast his net at the 'mannos' (levee/lock) on the right. The box fitted to the bracket of the bicycle at the rear is meant for his evening catch. The 'pescador' has parked his prized possession as close to the Holy Cross as possible - and within his sight for obvious reasons and many intentions - so that he may be blessed with a good and sizable catch and also so that no one steals - neither his net, catch nor his bicycle.
