As a travel photographer dabbling in both landscape and street photography, I always try to inspire people to travel the
world through my work. I wish that the world, with its abundance of sights to behold, could be captured in a single
frame. To me, most of the work in creating an image comes as part of the necessary preparations before releasing the
shutter. This preparation work is just as important to me as the final outcome of the image.

Having first started with a curiosity for long exposure photography, I've focused on travel & portrait photography, which
has been quite a ride ever since. Though gears change as years pass, the passion and burning desire for image creation
remains the same. Recently, I have dedicated my recent travels to India. It is hard to explain in words how much India
has to offer for photographers, the essence of which I try to accurately showcase through my work.
22
Optimized for FX-format cameras, the resulting images deliver stunning detail and contrast across the entire frame when taken at any focal
length or aperture. What's more, the lens comes equipped with enhanced AF performance, Vibration Reduction (VR) which provides an effect

To me, life is best enjoyed on two wheels. Whether on land or underwater, the beauty of nature is timeless, and
waiting to be shared with the world. Even though I'm constantly on the move, I always take my time with my
photographs, waiting from ten minutes to five hours just for that perfect shot. I am often intrigued by the physics of
light and how it can be reflected and scattered, changing the way colours appear in nature at different times of the day.
26
This 5× telephoto zoom is ideal for shooting sports, birds, aircraft and landscapes. Its superior optical performance is due in part to its one Super

Photographs speak volumes about people and lets us re-live all the precious moments and raw emotions for years
to come. I like to keep things real, natural, and allow my subjects to be themselves during the session with minimal
disruptions and instructions on posing. By embracing the differences in all individuals, we endeavour to tell their stories
and personalities through the form of storytelling. Sometimes, the best images happen in the least expected situation.

Having the right photographic equipment with me while travelling fulfilled my childhood dream to recreate stunning views
of the night sky. The AF-S NIKKOR 24mm f/1.4G ED is a well-balanced wide angle lens that captures both the sprawling
landscapes as well as dreamy details of the nightscape. Handheld photography is not an issue with the lens, and produces

replicating all that in stills for everyone to experience.

The legendary manual-focus NIKKOR 35mm f/1.4 has now been upgraded to an AF-S lens with the latest digital technology. This lens achieves
a remarkable level of coma aberration correction in order to deliver stunning images, even at a wide-open aperture. Nano Crystal Coat drastically
reduces ghost and flare effects when shooting wide-angle, where the possibility of these effects can increase. A great choice for nature,

This new-generation super-telephoto lens provides outstanding optical performance with minimized chromatic aberration. The weight of
approx. 3800 g is realized through the employment of fluorite lens elements for superior mobility. Vibration Reduction (VR) which provides an
effect equivalent to a shutter speed 4.0 stops* faster adopts a new “SPORT” mode that is particularly effective when shooting sports. Other
noticeable features include an electromagnetic diaphragm for stable exposure control even during continuous shooting, a highly reliable fluorine

comfortable handheld macro shooting. The lens delivers crisp yet natural images in any genre of photography. The longer focal length gives it a
great working distance when shooting close-ups of flowers, insects and other small wildlife. It also takes fantastic portraits. Nano Crystal Coat
effectively reduces ghosting and flare effects.
