Your Bio

My photographs showcase the splendor and variety of the Indian culture & heritage, and try to convey to the viewer, in a visually beautiful form, the emotions of being in some special places.
For the past two years, I have been privileged to travel around my surrounding areas to capture those moments. I have not curtailed my interest to any one particular area, I am still in experimental mode of Travel photography, Festival Moods, Arts & Culture etc.

Through my photography, I have tried to convey these feelings of emotions and passion to my viewers. I seek to give a sense of belongings and enjoyment by letting the viewer see through the images as much as I saw myself, and experience the same emotions.To do so, I carefully select and interpret visually the subjects so that their essence is revealed, often going to a great deal of effort just to create a single image. It is my wish that these images will inspire the viewers the desire to discover for themselves the moments captured. I like to emphasize the beauty, as I feel that aesthetic appreciation will lift our soul and eventually lead to awareness and respect for the natural and cultural diversity of our planet.

Born in India, I was originally trained as a Electronics Engineer, worked with many Computer companies. From last two years, I have been capturing the moments which fascinates me. My special interests are in Indian Art & Culture, Music & Dance, Festive moods.
