Mighty Himalayas

How did you venture into photography?

Photography came to me unexpectedly. I was in search of the beauty of the hills, but it came to me differently. Now, I can’t seem to stop myself from sharing what I got from the Himalayas, with the help of my lens and articles.

Seeing that your passion lies in landscape photography, what piqued your interest in this genre?

My passion for landscape came from my passion to explore the Himalayas.

Most of your pictures depict the Himalayas. How do you plan your trips and select your locations?

I always do a lot of study about the location, weather conditions and local surroundings. For photography, clear weather conditions and a clear sky is needed. I plan in such a manner so that I can be sure that all the aspects fall into place during my trips.
