Wandering Beetle by Shikchit Khanal
I spent two nights in the Thar Desert of Rajastan, India with five of my very best friends. As we rested in the sand I noticed this beetle slowly walking along and I was reminded of the story of the Little Prince by Antoine de St. Exupery. It was really difficult to capture this slow but ever moving little beetle who kept moving on. I looked away for only a moment and when I looked back this mysterious little beetle had disappeared leaving only its tiny prints in the sand.

A smile can change the world.
