Photography gives him an excuse to travel and capture nature and landscape. Due to his immense love for travelling, his friends have named him “Ghummakkadswami” which is also his Instagram handle.
He started his photographic venture with Nikon D3000 in the year 2011 and fell in love with Nikon cameras. Presently he is using Nikon D850, D750 and Z6.
Despite his busy work schedule, Rajiv makes it a point to travel to at least two destinations in a year. Hailing from Jharkhand, he has travelled to quite a few places like Iceland, Denmark, Netherlands and Switzerland.
Apart from travelling and photography, he loves teaching. He has trained over 2000 budding photographers in various workshops and his work has been recognised at various photographic platforms.
How did you venture into landscape photography?
Travelling to new places was always on my priority list. I like to explore new places. I was always in love with mother earth and its vast landscapes. It was the year 2011, when I got my first D-SLR and started learning different settings to capture the places I travelled to. It changed everything. After that, I started visiting places where I could shoot good images and photography started pushing excuses for me to travel and to capture landscapes.
What do you particularly look for when you choose your next destination and what kind of planning goes behind it?
