This snapshot shows Mr. Biman Bihari (on the left) and Mrs. Sheela Biman (wearing sunglasses) at a cricket match in Melbourne, Australia. The stadium is filled with spectators and there is a large score board in the distance. 

Mrs. Sheela Biman and her husband, Mr. Biman Bihari, moved from India to Australia in the 1960s. During this time, Mr. Bihari was doing postgraduate work in Mining Engineering and Mrs. Biman was doing postgraduate work in Social Work at the University of Melbourne. While in Australia, they welcomed their first child – their daughter, Birubi. After living there for four years, the family moved to the small Canadian mining town of Chibougamau, Québec, where their son, Aapool, was born. Mr. Bihari enthusiastically documented the family in photos and home videos, recording their immigration to Canada, daily life, family outings, and community events.
