Sonargaon & Panamnagar (December 2007)

We made a photographic tour to the ancient capital of Bangla........ Sonargaon...... we were four souls trying to capture history with our lenses..... the tour was a result of the common goal of the Flickr Bangladeshi Photographers community........

This is a place where I would keep coming back, but still would not get satisfied!!

Panam is currently going through some restoration process.......... many are now questioning the process and are worried that the heritage would not be saved properly.......... is there any way we can get rid of those worries?

I want to be free...........
