My first blog post and I have been agonising over it for hours. How do I set the mood? Should it be something long and technical or something short and breezy? Just a photograph to show off my work or ……….

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light (Genesis 1:3). And I say thank God there is light, for where would we photographers be without it? Chasing the elusive golden hour at the crack of dawn with a two-tonne pack of gear (or so it seems).

After dealing with street dogs, belligerent security men and curious members of the public, the balancing act of ISO, shutter speed and f-stop somehow managed, all the time keeping an eye on creativity, I come home to practice the dark dark art of post processing.

Countless hours,thousands of rupees and too many Sunday mornings sacrificed to the God…
