Systems Manager by profession, I work in India's one of the biggest MNCs. Though not totally passionate, but I feel good about my work to earn for living. While its not a big earning, but still it is quite enough for simple living and manage travel vacations alongwith purchasing some photography gadgets here and there.

Talking about passion, I am lucky to share the passion of travelling with my lovely wife, Debarati. Four years back, when we planned to visit Ladakh for the first time, we purchased a DSLR, ​to relive the moments..a straight jump from Kodak KB10 to Nikon D5000......and that changed our life...How I cherish the decision now!!! (spending 34K INR was not that easy then)

 

Being a good enough Physics and Electronics student, the science of the photography was easier for me, am still learning the arts part of it and what joy I am having while going through this learning process.....

 

The idea behind creating this website is to share the joy and my experiences about photography and travelling. Please share your thoughts which most certainly help my learning.

 

Presently my Photography kit contains:

i) Nikon D5000 Body

​ii) Lense

1. Tokina 11-16/f2.8 Dx

2. Nikkor 18-55 /f3.5-5.6 Dx II (the cheapest kit lens from Nikon)

3. Nikkor 35 /f1.8 Dx

4. Tamron 28-75/f2.8 Fx

5. Nikkor 70-300/ f4.5-5.6 Fx

iii) Vanguard Alta Pro 263 AT + GH100 Ball Head

iv) Good CPL filters for all Lenses......and a lot many memory cards.

 

Cheers!!!
