Plastic water containers waiting to be filled at a village water hand pump (India).

Like in most villages in India, there is no running water and people get their water from hand pumps or water wells.

Traditionally, women and girls are in charge of the water chores. Boys and men sometimes help them.

This photo is part of a series that I took in a small rural Indian village.
