Selvin

FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER: Selvin


-- from s e l v i n - (?)
Captured my brother in an ecstatic mood on one of the beaches in Bombay,
the timing and composition was just perfect as I had expected
no editing done here, this one's the actual picture captured..
(F/6.4 ISO 50 Exp time - 1/729 secs)


-- from s e l v i n - (?)
Nature has been my biggest inspirations and blooming flowers brings a smile on my face
this one was captured in Kerala, India...my fav. macro shot with the perfect light and the dew drops enhanced the overall beauty

1: How long have you been involved in photography?
Got interested in photography from my diaper days! seriously involved from last one year.

2: Equipment you use?
I used to dabble around with my dad's Agfa Click II film camera,
now I use a basic P&S Nikon's L2 DSLR, planning to get a professional one soon..

3: Mac or PC?
Unfortunately I'm still using a PC, I'd worked on a Mac long back...still miss those good ol' days

4: What inspires you?
Almost everything, I get inspired almost every moment of my life..
in general life, nature and the world around me.

5: Preferred subject matter?
Landscapes, macro, portraits,motion,etc...it all depends if the intended subject is interesting

6: Name one thing you haven't caught with the camera that
you REALLY want to capture.

I'm in search of a beautiful muse, hope I find one soon...

7: When in doubt about your art, who do you confide in?
Close friends and definitely my flickr buddies who are honest and sincere..

8: Qualifications/training in anything? ie: Photoshop
I'm a student of life and learn through my experiences...
still an 'illiterate' when it comes to photography with no proper qualifications/training
I use Adobe Lightroom for basic crops and tones, prefer keeping my pictures real and natural

9: Plans for the future?
Upgrade my equipment, travel the whole world and capture God's creations through my lens

10: In one word, describe your photography.
eternal
