Sanjay Austa is an award-winning photographer based in New Delhi.
He started his career as a journalist and the switch to photography was gradual. His photographs and his choice of subjects however reflect his journalistic pedigree. His first assignment took him on an adventurous two-month expedition to Kanchenjunga, where he documented the Indian Army's climb to the summit.
Since then he has shot myriad subjects in diverse geographical climes including the wild in the African Savannas, the life in the Arctic and the deserts in the Middle East. He has a penchant for human-interest issues for which he travels extensively in India. His photo-essays are published regularly in the Indian and the International Media. His photo-feature on the 1984 anti-Sikh Delhi riots was exhibited in California and UK by various human rights groups in 2009 and 2010 respectively.
More recently he has done four picture books on World Heritage Monuments for Penguin Books. He is a guest faculty at the Indian Institute of Mass Communication(IIMC), New Delhi. He was awarded the prestigious Karamveer Puraskar Award in 2010 for his photo-essays on social and cultural issues.

"I am sure he takes a zillion pictures and posts only his good shots. But still, I haven't seen any pictures that capture human features as intesely as his. He's got a great choice and I guess a great intution on when to click. Amazing pics!"
