Shot of brother and sister by waterfall- an association

From PhalkeFactory

in some ways a direct association, in some ways, a very different story from that of the brother and sister who are shot together by the waterfall in the film Shree Krishna Janam

Bobo was three years older than Perry and she adored him; he was her only toy, a doll she scrubbed and combed and kissed and sometimes spanked. Here was a picture of the two of them together bathing naked in a diamond-watered Colorado creek, the brother, a potbellied sun-baked cupid, clutcing his sister's hand and giggling, as though the tumbling stream contained ghostly tickling fingers. In another snapshot(Mrs. Johnson was unsure, but she thought probably it was taken at a remote Nevada ranch where the family was staying when a final battle between the parents, a terrifying contest in which horsewhips and scalding water and kerosene lamps were used as weapons, had brought the marriage to a stop), she and Perry are astride a pony, their heads are together, their cheeks touch; beyond them dry mountains burn.
