I try and capture events associated with life ranging from any cultural tradition, a simple portrait, a street moment to a festival for that matter. Hence call me a “real life photographer”.I have been associated with this field for more than 5 years, gradually building on my observation, persistence and proficiency as a photographer. Occasionally I also like playing with patterns amalgamating human relief points in them. Mycontribution and achievements received acknowledgment and distinction by photographic bodies across the globe:➢ Excellence FIP (India);➢ Artiste FIAP (Belgium);➢ GPA. PESGSPC , Hon.

As the city battles out the rain and water logging, these hand pulled rickshaws go about their daily routine of transporting passengers from one place to the other. Apparently to the invisible eye, it appears that only the rickshaw pullers fight the adversities of weather to earn their daily living. But it is a far bigger battle, a much bigger war that wages. More and more extreme weather events frequent the city at times when they are least expected. People have to face this, with clenched teeth, as if simply victims of dark fate.Is the photograph part of a series of photographs or a photographic project?: NoLink to the referred project/series:Has the photograph already been published or rewarded?: YesExplain where and when and provide a link to the referred prize orpublication: Awarded and published on multiple platforms.
