I have started photography with compact cameras like everyone else. Later on after gaining experience and more interest, I switched to DSLR, canon 500D with 18-55 mm and 70-300 mm. At present I use a Canon 7D MK II and an additional lens Canon 100-400 mm, 100 mm macro IS USM and Tokina 11-16 mm lens. I started taking pictures since my childhood when I was 13-14 years old. I used equipment like Agfa Click III, Kodak, Yashica MF-2, Premier camera during my early stage of photography.  It was a great hobby for me during my childhood but didn’t get any better platform to present my photographs as today we all have got. I am always interested in people and the drama that unfolds in every minute around me. The infinite possibility of human nature as a subject for a photographer never fails to excite me. Besides people and street I am very much interested in travel, nature and macro photography as well. I feel, like people, travel, nature and macro photography too has infinite possibilities for a photographer. My approach to photography is to keep things simple, besides the basic compositional guidelines I try to catch the right moment. To me freezing a moment out of ordinary life that tells a story of a person makes an image extraordinary.
