Welcome to my blog - A small introduction

What is this blog about?

This is just a small preview into my love for photography where I will try to get into detail as to how I captured the moment, why I captured it, how I edited them and many more things.

So, this is basically a heart-to-heart about whatever I feel like writing, and also about what you want to hear. Sometimes when I post a picture on Instagram I wish that you would know the story behind the picture, and I try to describe it somehow, but it's not always possible on a social media platform like Instagram.

About me

A normal CA student with a passion for photography. I started getting into photography in 2014 when my parents bought me a Nikon Coolpix point and shoot camera. I started taking pictures of things like butterflies, spiders and all normal, everyday objects that you see around.

So, inevitably, I started posting my pictures on Facebook and Instagram. I got a good initial reaction from friends which pushed me to learn more about photography in general. I have definitely come a long way, but I have an even longer path ahead of me.

Do checkout my Instagram profile.
 
Well, let's start, eh?

Light Painting Technique

(Vidhana Soudha. Mi A3) This post is more of a guide type of post. So, I'll try not to make it boring. I'm going to talk about a mode called Light Painting, which you might or might not have heard of, but you would have come across the pictures at least once. I'm doing this post because some people told me that it's not possible to take pictures like that after I posted a couple of these on Instagram. It's totally possible, and anyone can do it. It's simple by the core. The name says it all. You paint with the lights.  So, how do you paint with light? A: You keep the shutter open for a longer time. What's shutter, and how do you keep it open? A: Shutter is the door to the image sensor where the image gets recorded. The sensor is our eye, and the shutter is the eyelid. The longer the shutter stays open the more light gets captured. These are just basics, there is also aperture that needs to be taken into consideration. What is aperture, you ask? A: It, to...

Uttarakhand - II

  The second and third days. It was just traveling that day. We had to climb to Tungnath peak the next day. So, we had to go and spend the night in a city closer to the mountain. There are camps and tents in places very close to the mountain but they are very pricey. And moreover, the demand was huge due to the holidays. So, we stayed in a lodge in Ukhimath. From Rishikesh, it took us almost 9 hours. And I got some good pics on the way. (River Mandakini. Canon 1500D. f/10. 1/400 s) (Somewhere near Rudraprayag. Canon 1500D. f/10. 1/400th s) (We also got to witness a nice sunset in Ukhimath. Canon 1500D. f/8. 1.3 s)     That night in the hotel we met a person with whom we had a nice, long conversation. He was so humble the whole time. He told us that he has traveled almost 90% of India. And he was talking about the dishes in Karnataka! Goes to show you that the more you see the modest you become. The next morning we left for Tungnath. The morning was nice. The first rays of...

Ballalarayana Durga and Bandaje Falls

(Shallow Grasslands. Mi A3. 1/3200 sec. ISO 94)   Sometimes things can go wrong in so many ways yet the end result could turn out to be wonderful. It doesn't happen often, but when it does, it is an amazing feeling. The first mistake was going on a bike with bad front brakes. More on that later. (Mountains of Western Ghats. Mi A3. 1/1513 sec. ISO 90)   Ballalarayana Durga is a fort built during the 12th century. All it remains are the ruins of the fort. The fee for the whole trek is Rs. 250. You can either just go to the fort or continue the trek to the Bandaje Falls. Going to the fort is easy. It takes only around 40 minutes. But to really enjoy the trek you need to go to the waterfalls. It takes around 2 hours from the fort. You get to enjoy the views of shallow grasslands. But there is no shade for resting. Most of the path is open grasslands. So, it might be difficult to trek during summer. We went in November, and still, it was very hot and sunny. We left Hassan at 6.30 a...
