nhilmy's photostream  

Enthusiastic amateur photographer. I live in Male', Maldives but I do travel around a bit and like to take my camera along. I love shooting with wide angles and am addicted to black and white cloud photography. I am also just beginning my experimentation with film by starting to develop my own black and white film.

Yes I do suffer a bit from GAS (gear aquisition syndrome) but I realize more or better gear doesnt make a better photographer. However the desire to own and use various lenses and cameras with different charecters and abilities is one that I think many photographers can relate to :)

Decided to list the countries I have visited (unfortunately I only got into photography in a big way relatively recently, I mostly have very touristy pics from these travels and for the most part they are not on flickr)



China
Dubai (or should it be UAE?)
England
France
Germany
Hong Kong
India
Italy
Malaysia
Scotland
Singapore
Sri Lanka
Switzerland
Thailand
USA
Vatican City (can you tell Im reaching?)

I'm actually disappointed :-( ... I need to travel more, or rather travel to newer places.
