A drama in rural India https://journals.worldnomads.com/santoshreddy/ Sun, 5 Apr 2026 15:12:17 GMT World Nomads Adventures I am Santosh Reddy, an engineer by profession. Like most people in the contest I have always had interest in photography and travel, thanks largely to Nat Geo and BBC. I have been practicing the art of photography for nearly 2 years. Having never had a formal education in photography, most of my learning’s are from observing images, reading articles, free training videos available online and mainly from the mistakes committed during previous shoots. Even though I do not differentiate and practice all styles of photography from street to fashion, I like my work best when I document any fair, festival or cultural events. Together with photography I like travelling, trekking and cycling. At this moment I am in a dilemma if I should take a break from my present job and take up photography, if I win here I will take this as a sign and this provide the confidence that I need to take photography professional. It will also provide me an opportunity to improve my photography skill and learn new ones, clear all the doubts I have about the profession. Provide first hand field experience on how to work on an assignment and in a team. Not to say a chance to see and experience Greenland. https://journals.worldnomads.com/santoshreddy/photos/42964/India/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel India santoshreddy https://journals.worldnomads.com/santoshreddy/photos/42964/India/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/santoshreddy/photos/42964/India/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Thu, 4 Jul 2013 17:40:00 GMT 0 I am Santosh Reddy, a Mechanical Engineer by profession.
