Shooting at a pottery town is always fun and challenging, that too if you have a cool subject (oops… sorry model!), there is no limit. Here are some of my images from Sultanpet Potter’s settlement. Like these images? Thank the model. If you don’t, pls comment.  Read More →

::15thAugust2010Sunday::

In spite of all my dislikes for Indian Independence Day, I enjoyed and celebrated this year in a small village in Tamil Nadu with some primary school kids. Shooting these children with 3 great qualities (Innocent, Ignorant and Independent) that are very specific to the remote villages had been a great experience. Kids are so energetic and interested to celebrate the day with my camera. Some of the portrait images from the Sunday at Poothamedu, Tamil... Read More

::a pier::

Thalankuppam is a small fishing hamlet, at the extreme north of Madras city. A river – called variously the Kourtaliayaar, Mogathwaram, Thalankuppam – meets the sea here, at Thalankuppam. A wide, sandy beach, broken piers, fishing boats, and more make for a great way to spend the evening. Thalankuppam, otherwise just a small dot in the map of Madras, has one little thing going for it. Fresh fish. Locals and people from far flock to the... Read More

M@napadu=Heaven

I must tell you.. this place Manapad (மணபாடு in Tamil) looked heaven when we were on our trip. The sky, the clouds and the sea all looked blue and blue everywhere. It was around 4.30pm, when we reached the village, the waves gave us a warm welcome. The men and women were sweet and soft, even when they speak to strangers like us. We started shooting the water and moving boats, then walked up the cliff to check The Holy Cross Church. It... Read More

Kul@sekaranpattinam,TheDasaraVillage

I was out on a short trip to Kulasekaranpattinam a small village with less than 10000 population. I was waiting for this trip for an year now, thanks to photojournalist friend Selvaprakash, who motivated with his awesome set of frames from last year Dasara. The train journey from Bangalore to Kulasai was tiresome, as the train delayed by 4 hrs, cos of some goods train derailed that night. But, when i reached this village, you guys should believe me,... Read More
