Tell us about your interest in photography. How and when did you start?

Since my childhood days, I have been fascinated with cameras and photographs. Being born and brought-up in Agra, I always got an opportunity to see many tourists at Taj Mahal, using long barrel like cameras. I used to wonder what that was all about. As a child I dreamed that one day, I too will have such a camera in my hand and will pursue photography. My dream came true in 1988, when I was in my thirties and for the first time in my life I picked up a camera - a Minolta XG1. Though initially I may have clicked some hopeless, rather worst shots, but few of them were nonetheless very good. And that prompted me to start learning and training myself, trying to get a better shot each time.
