About me

A happy Bang!alorean from !ncredible India, I am an IT consultant by profession and a photographer by passion. I started photography around early 2006. I guess this hobby evolved from my interest in trying to make good family albums particularly in the magic land, Kodai.
Photography as I understand is a celebration of life through light, something like the coming of spring or the rising of sun. The camera isn't a machine, it is a tool to capture my subconscious mind. Everything in this world of magnets and miracles beckons me, but it is the mystery of India that expands my mind's eye. From the smell of the spices to the smiles of the faces, from the river of colour to the joy of monsoons - a bundle of entire world singing in as one nation. It is an incredible source for realization.
