This 6" x 4" BLACK & WHITE Photograph was colored by me with TRANSPARENT WATER COLOR, Tinted by layers and layer of color to get this effect. Mr. Shekar was my friend and son of Great story writer, Director & Actor Mr Jawar Seetharaman in Tamilnadu, India. I gave one copy to him & another original is with me. This was done when color photography was very rare in Chennai in 1968.
