THANKS KARTIK (JAIN)

Kartik Jain a budding photographer is a friend. I met him first at Samira's place. I really can’t go into who Samira is because that will probably take the entire blog in short she is my childhood friend. I grew up with her. She is that person who has always been around. A friend who I wouldn't be able talk to for 2 straight years yet when we do catch up seems like the two years changed nothing! Mira Kuhn-best friend, soul mate, sister, my partner in crime!
Anyways this is not about her this one is about Kartik!
Thanks for the amazing photographs you took.
BACKGROUND
The Latika Roy Foundation played host to 7th graders from Woodstock School. The students were here from November 3 to November 6 and on the last day we organized an inclusive activity for students of Woodstock, Karuna Vihar and trainees from CVT at Latika Vihar.
The students were divided into groups of 4 and they were given bed sheets, paintbrushes and lots of paint to unleash their creativity! And unleash they did! Now how Kartik got to know about the activity is another story.
SCENE 1
Neha Joshi (yes, there is another Neha Joshi at the Foundation!) and I were traveling back from Delhi. We were very excited as our tickets had been upgraded and we would be traveling in style AC 1 Tier!!!
Anyways so we bumped into the kiddo at the station and what do you know he is traveling in style too! So there we were sitting in our cabin with an elderly couple, Kartik, and the two Neha Joshis. Two people from Latika Roy Foundation and they don’t talk about it, not possible. So we began rattling about what we do and about the Woodstock visit yada yada yada.
That's when Kartik tells us that he had come to Delhi for a photography workshop and we pounced! "Why don’t you come and shoot some pictures for us Kartik?" He agreed!
CUT TO SCENE II
The mayhem begins!!!
The children poured in at Latika Vihar at 11 am on Friday, November 6 and Kartik strolls in at 11:30. With paints and children everywhere I could see Kartik maneuver his way around trying to take photographs.
These are some of his photographs. I must say WELL DONE KARTIK!

That's ME!

Helping a friend.

What one group made!
The other Neha Joshi-hmmm now I can give Picasso a run for his money!
A splash of Colour!
Hema Di(The force at LV) and Me(the chotta force at LV)
The 3 Musketeers (Neha J, Neha J and Priyam -my sister from another mother)
