Photographs immortalize the captured moments; in a way they freeze the moment in history for posterity. A picture is never a product of a single person, event, place or time. It is rather a combined outcome of all of them and much more. The necessity to complicate an image is often devalued in a fast-paced society such as ours, but the truth is more than what a picture apparently tells, it is way more crucial to know what it does not at the first glance. If any of the thousands of pictures in the following pages make you pause beyond the instance, this site would have served the purpose.
Since this is a PhotoBlog, it is constantly updated with contents. To access my Photography in India, please visit the India SiteMap here.
I do not make a living from photography alone. And my images are CopyLeft. However, considering the hardships the visual artists have to go through, it will only be apt to highlight the need for us to value the high-resolution images. Please consider buying some prints at very reasonable rates by contacting me.
