Hi to all shutterbugs!
Name: Kiran
City: Chennai
Occupation: Technical Writer
Background: I always have this dream of clicking some great pictures every time I'm out on a tour. But I end up returning disappointed; my photography skills are that worse. Although I have not made any improvements on my phtography skills till date, thanks to the fact I do not own any camera, I strongly believe this new platform would provide all that I need.
I'm an avid tourer and have developed a habit of setting off on a tour every month - either on a bike (with xBhp friends) or on a trek (with my trek gang).
I might be gifting myself a good camera in the near future (quite optimistic, I am). I believe this forum would help me in all aspect of becoming a better photographer. I'm looking forward to meet some of thePhotographers in offline workshops. Thanks!
Favorite subjects: I'm an amateur when it comes to photography. No favorite subjects; I MUST learn all that I can. That said, I have a slight inclination towards Nature, in general. :)
Camera and lenses: Canon S3IS (my friend's). Will buy one soon.
Favorite photographers: Late Galen Avery Rowell and Frans Lanting
Looking forward to a wonderful journey! Thanks, all!
A few pics I shot (through the Canon S3IS):
