In the world of photography, there are those who take pictures, and then there are artists who capture life's moments and emotions through their lens. Mohin Sawant, a passionate photographer from the vibrant state of Goa, belongs to the latter category. His journey into photography began as a hobby, but it didn't take long for him to realize that it was much more than that.
A Passion-Turned Profession
For Mohin, photography was not just a hobby; it was a calling that ignited a spark within him like nothing else. Despite initial familial opposition, his determination to pursue his dreams remained unwavering. "Photography is a work of art, a skill that should be mastered and executed well," Mohin emphasizes. Coming from a scientific background, it was his unwavering dedication that guided him towards the world of photography.
The turning point in his journey occurred in 2014 when he won a photography contest held by Vidhya Vrudhi Sanstha. "I saw my dreams turning into reality," Mohin recalls with a smile. It was the moment when he realized that photography was not just a hobby; it was a way of life. "When I started enjoying my work with my lens, I started LIVING my life," he adds, reflecting on how the joy he found in photography transcended the realm of mere hobby.
Victories That Inspire
Winning prizes in photography contests is a testament to Mohin's exceptional talent. He shares his emotions and experiences from his victories in the Vidhya Vrudhi Sanstha and Rotary Club competitions, stating, "Every time I look back to the times of my victory, I feel proud, proud of that soul who was courageous enough to present his art in front of others."
