So, what the heck is all this?

Pratibimb is my personal photoblog. Pratibimb means a reflection !! Images displayed on this photoblog are what caught my fancy and I captured with my camera. I hope you will enjoy the reflections.

I am a serious amateur photographer, and not yet composed with the intuitive eye of an artist. Hence, even if a few of my reflections resonate with your emotions, I think, I should continue clicking anticipating better and better reflections in future.

Photography takes the ordinary and brings out the extraordinary. The limitations in my photography, are in myself!

Ideally, with an understanding of natural light, one should be able to create images as the artist paints with the brush on the canvas! There is still a long way to go!

    My favourite photographers :


  • Reza Deghati - an Iranian photojournalist!

    "I leave aside the camera when the person I was going to photograph needs my help."...Reza

  • Steve McCurry

    Recognized universally as one of today's finest image makers.

  • Greg Gorman

    "For me a photograph is most successful when it doesn't answer all the questions, and it leaves something to be desired."...Greg

  • Henri Cartier-Bresson

    "For me the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity, the master of the instant which, in visual terms, questions and decides simultaneously. In order to give a meaning to the world, one has to feel involved in what one frames through the viewfinder. This attitude requires concentration, discipline of mind, sensitivity, and a sense of geometry. It is by economy of means that one arrives at simplicity of expression."...Henri

  • Raghu Rai

    Raghu Rai (born 1942) is an Indian photographer, who has based his career on the coverage of his native country. Rai became a photographer in 1965 and a year later joined the staff of The Statesman, a New Delhi publication. In 1976, he left the paper and became a freelance photographer. From 1982 up until 1992, Rai was the director of photography for India Today. And from 1990 to 1997, he served on the jury for World Press Photo.
