Red photographer

I still like use of Red to present vigour of life. Like earlier photographer of (Leica) Red journalism shots. Here is one I found out while searching for another photo.

Fluidic presence of present

Sometimes, when you are not infront of your client, mechanical being-ness, there are some times like this. when you are in touch with your core content, with soil, grass, landed in a village, your presence present you a fludic presence. time walks with you, you walk with presence. That fluid feel is not the same what you feel at office, in those city moments. there the feel is more like a steel ball running in a bearing. The path is known, friction may vary, fluid lubricants are known, their burning smell is known too. I wanted to catch that fluid presence in my photo when I was in a village today. I know I was walking a field having some trees, new crops waiting, shadows that will follow the sun, woman were taking their dry woods for cooking fire. But I also knew, I am not part of them, I am enjoying it, I can feel it, but it is passing by. a present that is a present to me with its presence. I tried to express that fluid presence which was a present to me in below photographs.

A morning photowalk in a garden in Baroda

Kamatibaugh garden in Baroda is superb (now). Went there to get acquinted with people inclined to photography. I reached there a bit early so had a stroll with my NEX mounted with a very old Russian Industar 50mmf3.5 preset at f11 with zone focus preset too. This combination is a small camera that people do not give any objection to. I can be almost invisible as a photographer. Infact one photographer had a camera bag and the moment he took out his camera, people sitting nearby asked whether there is a photo day or such special today while I was photographing around them for last 15 minutes. Since photos are taken at split seconds, it can be skewed to say lies or a different story altogether. Here are some shots which are funny and coincidental. and some are to capture pure beauty of light. Some were busy with their daily exercises and I found my coincidental similes. In agreement with. A supporter. A supporter and a watcher. Thou shall command, shall I follow.
