Clikkkk

Photography : Ever since I saw a camera I wanted to take all the photos in a family get together rarely I was allowed to touch on a real camera and finally on one fine evening I took my first photo in Spencer plaza when I was 9, after the age of Digital Photo revolution my curiosity and the love to take portraits and pictures of my self grew more, during a Martial Art demo in Pollachi (Southern Tamil Nadu) in the 2002, I managed to get permission to take all the snaps for my club, no one knew that it was the first time I was given a camera, a normal film type camera model, as the show begin a very shocking incident took place it seems that the organizer was conducting a demo for the first time so he had very little idea of how to do a demo with some fire materials, the plan was a young girl doing her higher secondary schooling was about to break tiles which was set on fire but to everybody's surprise the whole stage started to ignited (no one was injured) I had the camera in my hand but I was in a dialema whether to take snaps of the moment or to help people get out, I was not in a hurry to run out of the hall because I was every sure that running out with the crowed will only make the matters worse and it was not such a big chaos too but at the same time I didn't have the courage to take snaps because I felt that every body would scold me later because that things settled down well and I completed my first photo shoot completely. I took snaps in which ever angels I felt without any one's interpreting. After a couple of weeks when the photos where take from the studio I was shocked to see that in one of the pics where my senior was jumping in the air after crossing 10 people lying down - - I was shocked that his head was out of the frame!@# apart from some minor mistakes like that :) everything was well lol, years later I meet a cinema photographer actually a cinematographer and wanted to learn Photography from him but since he was very frank with me he told me that Photography was a very expensive hobby and not to committed unless I can afford it completely initially I was interested but after looking at the price of the lens and camera which a professional had to have, I decided to be a freelance photographer taking pictures in mobile camera I love to take self portraits of myself and now taking snaps in non SLR digital cameras, I just love it! love every snap I take..
