This captivating photograph was taken in a park in New Delhi, captured on 4x5 film. The photographer asked children who were playing after school if they would posing for a photo. The group of children spontaneously arranged themselves in a way that seems almost too perfect to be by chance. The absence of any direction, posing, or instruction emphasizes the authenticity and naturalness of their arrangement.
Through this image, Reed has encapsulated a precious moment in time, evoking a sense of nostalgia and common connection we all have with children.
