I photograph everything around me, be it Nature, Cityscape and
People. However, basically l am an Unban photographer. l love the
city, its people and it’s Architecture. The high-rise buildings with
glass and chrome create wonderful distorted reflections which l find
fascinating. People intrigue me with their colorful personalities and
actions. The city has everything for me – Architecture, People and
even Nature. When l stroll in the streets with my camera anywhere in
the world, l try to capture moments and episodes that will never come
back. When l discovered the digital camera and the software to go
with, l became addicted to this medium and its vast possibilities.
