Me and My World

I became a photographer accidentally.. There was no method to my madness I was an alcoholic and was being treated for the same the mind doctor asked me to take up a hobby that would replace my alcoholism.
I bpught a camera and went to shoot Moharam at Dongri.. I thought I would catch up on my faith through the camera.
I had distance myself from all religiosity and was held like a genie in a bottle of booze.
However I aimed to be a hobbyist photographer I had worked at Mudra so I had seen great masters at work.. But I was there only as a coordinator and stylist for the Vimal Kabir Bedi campaign.
I met Mr Shreekanth Malushte took up his photography course years back at Dadar.
And thus began my journey as a shooter I had given up Old Monk completely.
Mr Malushte enrolled me as a life member PSI camera club.
Here I met my other two Gurus late BW Jatkarji and late KG Maheshwariji.
And also joined NPPA under late Guru Anil Bhartiyaji.
But my digital gurus were photographers at Buzznet later Flickr.
Than I met @glennlosack he changed my vision he introduced me to beggars.. I met Marc De Clercq got into Hijras and Sufism.
Met @laurent_salesse got into Khamakhya.
Met @boazimages and @fotravelphoto got into videos..
I owe my photography to all these friends they molded me and made me what I am as a photographer.
I will not forget Late Mr PC Little we was my mentor.
And last but not the least @vinayparelkar
