Here is my review of Sigma 15 mm f/1.4 DG DN Diagonal Fisheye Art Lens.

Every morning in the mountains is always a celebration. It's a glorious greeting the sun gives the mountains and anyone who are his guest in the morning. Both mountains and the Sun don't fail to give a good a pose :)

I met these ladies near a bridge by the side of a forest stream. They were waiting for their vehicle to take them back to their home after their day's work at the coffee and pepper plantations. I liked the contrast in their costume colour and immediately felt like shooting. I asked for their permission and happily agreed.

You always don't need the most expensive lens to make a decent portrait. This picture was shot with , one of the least priced . It is small, light and has decent optics for about INR 18 k budget.

It was on 23 April 2014 that I decided to give up my engineering career and take up photography professionally. I chose wedding photography and have been practising for over 8 years in the brand name . It all started with a Canon kit with used EF lenses I bought from my friend

Swipe right to see the first sketch I did for my logo. And it was the construction triangles that I used which is now my brand name with a "Try" to keep me reminded that I have to always try for something different. Thank you for making this beautiful logo.

Apart from being a photographer, it was really difficult to forget engineering and it still continues with a review of photography gears. What was once a profession is a hobby now. I do that on my youtube channel . Apart from tech stuff, my heart has been longing to tell stories and you can expect that in my youtube in future.

From my college days, I had always looked forward to the days when I should be taking a class or presenting my thesis and this interest in teaching/ presenting continued during my corporate career. It was in 2011, the time I used to spend all my free time with when the founder & fellow trekker once asked me to do a workshop on basic photography I started doing photography workshops. I would have done a lot of free workshops with either for free or collecting a small amount like Rs 100 for organizing amenities.

Now with this opportunity with , I should be able to meet many more photographers, videographers and filmmakers. I am excited that I will be able to teach again continuously. I am looking forward to your support.

I thank all my friends and teachers who have been my support system.

On our way to visit the Dargah, we found this thatha selling some beautiful caps imported from Bangaladesh. We bought one each. Thank you for striking some amazing poses.
