Interview
with
Kumaran
Yes, infact I love to shoot nature. It is so
dynamic that everytime I approach her I encounter
something new.The lush green farms,
woods during the monsoons and winters, the
lakes, water falls, streams, rivers and the
unexhaustive list of nature drives my passion.
Clicking nature in turn gives me a sense of
relaxation.
Tell us a little about yourself.
I am a project management professional residing in
Hyderabad. A nature lover and a self learned
photographer.
How did the passion you have for photography
develop?
My interest towards photography started from my school
days. My first Camera was a Nikon film roll version in
which I used to try some unique clicks whenever I go out
on a trip with my friends. Since Photogrphy is an
expensive hobby I could’nt pursue it during my college
days. But once I got a job, I could afford the basic DSLR
camera Canon EOS1000D and then moved towards Nikon
D7000. The fuel that motivates me to continue my hobby
is the appreciations that I receive from my friends and all
those who follow my pages in Facebook.

You seem to incorporate a lot of naturalistic elements
such as birds, plants and leaves. What is it about the
natural world that draws you into incorporating those
into your images?
Photography is about creating, exploring
and trying to develop skin and attain a
sense of style for your images. What is it
about photography that you enjoy most
and how do you think you will further your
career over the next few years?
I never tried to develop a style of my own, but
my photographs generally reflect my mood
and the way I see the world through my eyes.
The thing that I enjoy most in photography is
capturing the moment that will never come
back. Though I am not in the frames It makes
me feel that I am inside every single photograph
that I click. In the next few years I would
like to take photography as my career in commercial
categories like candid wedding shoots,
Kids, family, fashion and couple photography.
If you could describe your photography in
under a sentence, what would it say?
“ My photograhs reflect my mood”
Finally, any advice for aspiring photographers?
I would suggest all the aspiring photographers
to learn more and try out what you have
learned. The best way is self learning with lots
of resources available in the web.The key is
continuous learning.
