This book, Ways of Water, is a collection of images by professional commercial photographer Rafique Sayed, who takes the readers on a mystical journey of water in its most natural form, seen through his lens.
Sayed came into professional photography by chance rather than by choice. He is one of the biggest names in fashion photography and has won several accolades for his work behind the camera.
His transition from fashion to reality is significant of his own journey for the search of ‘naked truth’. He spent a major part of his life pursuing fashion photography, gaining fame and fortune on the way, until one morning, when he decided to discard the ‘fashion photographer’ tag and went on to shoot portraits of real people, nature, still life, landscapes, concrete structures and so on.
