Travayegeur (Sahil)'s photostream  

Hello and welcome to my photostream.....
I am officially addicted to flickr since may2007....

I am a third year law student (as of now)

I seek freedom in my creativity,and in the way i live. I dont like being constrained. Photography, for me is simply an extension of the natural impulse to explore the larger world. It gives me tremendous creative satisfaction & an opportunity to explore and celebrate different places, people & cultures..It helps me get out of my head & "into my own world."
I like honest, straighforward, audacious and witty people & i love being surrounded by people who can inspire & motivate me to no extent...

>> It is the photographer's job to see more intensely than most people do.He must keep in him something of the child who looks at the world for the first time or of the traveller who enters a strange country.

I have unknowingly formed a special bond with flickr over the years and its taught me a lot in the process..
Last but not the least,i thank all my flickr friends for their comments,views and appreciation...it helps me get better@photography....

My equipment & Accessories:
1)Canon 50d with kit lens...
2) Nikon D40 with an 18-55mm kit lens...
3) Nikon F75(film) with an 28-80mm Sigma lens...
4) Manfrotto 055xProB With 488Rc2 head.
