I loved nature and to live with the sound of nature since my
childhood. The man reason for that would be my parents, specially my father who
loves every element of nature and enjoys the beauty of nature immensely.
Since my adolescence, during which I learned there is
something called “nature photography”, I always wished for a camera of my own.
But it was only 4 years back; I could by a DSLR camera, even
though I used to photograph things with a small pocket camera, before that.My very first DSLR camera was canon 1100D, which is not even
a semiprofessional one; nevertheless I’m still using it for my photography. It has
helped me a lot in my craving for nature photography and has gone through a lot
of grievances with my unprofessional aggressive photographing techniques.
After starting working in Mannar, my photographic
opportunities went a long way by leaps and bounds, beyond the usual backyard photography I
used to practice.
I consider myself lucky working there as it gives me a lot
of experience in natural beauty and I was able to get to know some of talented
and experienced photographers.
Mannar is a place where there is a lot of
untouched nature, although it is been invaded by the modern technology
and irrational land distributing systems now, day by day.
Although I’m still a neonate in photography who just started
learning it, I have captured some moments I am satisfied with. most of them were captured during th blue hour and the golden hour with my 18-55mm lens.
