- A little girl clinging to her mother as seawater licks the soles of her feet
- A toddler kneeling in the sand in wonder, awaiting the waves, as her father indulgently watches.
- A baby boy finding his mother’s knee his sole anchor as a sudden tide threatens to topple him.
- A dead dog gently tossed each time a wave comes and recedes, unable to care about the dampness of his coat.
- A toy seller blowing bubbles, hoping to cajole the Sunday crowd of children into buying a bubblemaker at twenty rupees each.
- A girl, walking amidst the floating bubbles, clicking pictures of all that has been touched by the sea, not letting the sea touch her.
