TO SPEAK ABOUT MYSELF, I TOOK MY FIRST PHOTOGRAPH IN THE YEAR 1968 WITH A KODAK’S “CLICK III” CAMERA AND MY FIRST SLR PENTAX K 1000 IN 1992. TREKKING IN THE REMOTE PLACES OF HIMALAYAS WAS MY FAVORITE DESTINATIONS FOR LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY.FROM 2009 I STARTED TO PARTICIPATE IN WORLD WIDE PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITIONS INCLUDING INDIAN COMPETITIONS.I AM ONE OF THE FIRST PRIZE WINNER IN “LONELY PLANET’S “A MILLION PHOTO COMPETITIONS” 2010. MONTHLY AND YEARLY PRIZE WINNER IN 2011-2012 IN “INTREPID TRAVEL-AUSTRALIA”.AND FINALIST IN “THE WORLD OPEN – CANADA, 2012”, PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER MAGAZINE, UK.-2012,I DO NOT HAVE ANY FORMAL TRAINING IN PHOTOGRAPHY,OWN EXPERIENCE IS MY OWN TRAINING, BUT IF I WIN,I WILL DEFINITELY GET SOME VALUABLE TIPS FROM MY MENTOR, MR.JASON EDWARD, WHICH WILL BE BENEFICIAL FOR REST OF MY LIFE. ON THE QUESTION OF MY CONTRIBUTION TO GREATER COMMUNITY, I SHOULD SAY THAT I WILL DEFINITELY COME OUT WITH EXCELLENT PHOTOGRAPHS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NEXT COMPETITIONS WHICH WILL BE VIEWED BY THE HUNDREDS OF PHOTOGRAPHERS AND JUDGES.
