Your father S. Paul was one of the pioneers of photography in India. Given that background, what is your memory of picking up a camera for the first time? I was always inspired by legendary craftsman SPaul sahib’s grandeur. Photography for him was bigger than earning a living out of the profession. He was always indulged in creating images with various modern cameras and lenses. During my childhood days I had been playing with almost each one of them. Cameras were like my toys.
