It’s not just taking a photo, capturing a moment, for me it is an intense process of conveying a message through an indeterminate process. My way of interpreting reality through light mood and atmosphere and conveying the same in an attractive and graspable way to others. An intense exercise of showing the real image and its interpretation on the same frame. I am 34 years old, a graphic designer b
y profession, living in Kolkata. Photography is my personal window to escape mundanity, my gaze to the world outside. A passion which grew more intense since 2009, when I brought my first digital SLR. Fragments of reality frozen in frames - my myriad gazes captured in a memory chip. And when I look at them again, a strange feeling overbears me. Are all these gazes perfect? Did I ever get one perfect gaze? I search for more, more and more frames to get hold of that single photograph - the perfect gaze, that perfect glimpse of reality and its interpretation, caught in a single shot. My perfect photograph.
