Exhibitions
Solo photography exhibition
‘Bombay Duck to Peking Duck’ at Soul Fry Casa, Mumbai - December 2009
Bombay Duck to Peking Duck’ – that’s the catchy title that tells a tale of the splendour of the sea and the seascape that forms the very essence of a photographic exhibition by Darryl Baptista at Soul Fry Casa, Fort, in December 2009. The fresh catch, boats bobbing in the water and scenic sand catch your eye in an array of pictures clicked from Mumbai to Goa.
You then travel to Hong Kong for a taste of the famed Peking Duck to floating restaurants, sampans and fishing villages that have a character all of their own.
