hrishikesh Chandanpurkar's photostream

I am a 23 year old from Pune, India. Just finished formal studies. I wish to live life as a nomad, travel to every nook and corner of the world, where ever life takes me. Tourist places don't attract me. (I was in Agra for 2 whole days, yet didn't even bother to see the Taj). It's the beauty in the less popular, serene places which attracts me. A blade of grass, a fallen half dried leaf, a shining crystal of quartz, tiny details (which people miss while they race to the mountain top) intrigue me. For me the journey matters more than the end. the climb rather than the view from top.

Currently I own no camera. My friends are kind enough to lend me theirs. Earlier i used to use Pentax SLRs and DSLRs.

I am fairly open minded when it comes to use of my images. Infact I will appreciate if you use them for educational or academic purpose. You are free to use my images as you wish as long as you do three things:

1. Give me credit for my image
2. Use it for non commercial purpose.
3. Do not edit it.

Update: Since Nov, I am using Nikon D80 with 18-135mm and Sigma 150-500mm lenses..

Now a days, I am increasingly getting attracted towards the context of the photos than the actual photos. Hence, I won't be spending time beyond doing minimal PP. Instead, I will be utilizing the time in describing contexts of the photos in my blog. Cya there.

Latest update: I've sold me 150-500 in order to concentrate more on landscapes.
