A Pathological Phototaker: Or so a little picture on the side of this blog says. I am one of those people who pleads guilty of having more than 2000 tagged pictures of myself on facebook, and most of these pictures are taken by me. No matter if i am going out for a party,to meet friends or just somewhere new i always have to have my trusted bright pink Sony camera with me. And on days when moments pop out of the blue, never fear cause my mobile is here. When i parted with my iPhone it had a total of 800 odd pictures in it in a matter of one year. And obviously that was all the uneventful events where my camera was not present. Though not a professional photographer myself i insisted that we get a Nikon professional for the 'family' and truly made use of it in the 17 days that i was in Dubai.
Cmon you gotta accept it makes this cake 10x better than it normally does. I love editing pictures and giving it different effects and constantly can spend hours on picnik. All this said what i truly wonder is whats is my big fascination with pictures. It is said that a picture is worth thousand words and maybe that's why most photographers enjoy candid pictures more than still life ones. I for one love taking pictures and most random moments where everyone is just busy with their day to day goings. Believe me when i say that they have always ended up being the most epic ones. Through grade 11 and 12 i used to sneak my phone into school only so that i could take so many pictures and albums on facebook are proof that i was successful. Someone once told me that they have never seen anyone upload pictures as fast as me. I still don't know if that was a compliment :P
From the sunrise to a baby's laugh everything seems more real in pictures. Its a way to save those moment that you may never get to live again. You get to see children grow up in pictures and laugh at the crazy stuff you wore years ago. People come and go but memories always remain and many a times the most material form you can transfer these memories into are pictures.
