The Last Journey, by Avishek Das

On a late evening I reached Maithan Dam, which is around 220km far from Kolkata. As the sun was about to set, the light was very low. I saw these travelers taking this boat; probably this was the last boat of the day going for its destination. I took my camera out and captured the moment.
