PLEASE DO NOT USE MY PHOTOGRAPHS UNLESS OTHERWISE THEY ARE ALLOWED FOR, WITH MY DUE PERMISSION.

By profession I own a small business whereas the photography is a leisure activity which is my passion and I never ever let it miss as and when I have an opportunity. Particularly when it has a subject of interest and I realize that this will be an eye catching shot -specially of the cultural and rural life of Sindh, Pakistan (the tendency of my photography which you will find holding a major stake of my work appearing on the FLICKR...)

Respective websites and exhibitions have owned my photos for display whereas I have participated into various competitions and the one which is of esteem for me is held under the umbrella of the International Labor Organization (ILO) in Islamabad, Pakistan (a competition funded by the Canadian International Development Agency), which was basically focused as to highlight the hardship and labor the feminine gender faces in Pakistan. My photo was ranked amongst the top ten into this competition. The details and the photos of this competition was also published into the magazine THE EXPRESS TRIBUNE, FEBRUARY 6, 2011 edition issuu.com/etribune/docs/february-6/1.

I also had a magnificent opportunity when the ICI Chemical, Pakistan selected one of my photo for appearing on their calender for the year 2009, and my photo grasped the page for the month of November/December. This calender was holding the photos of other great artists and photographers of Pakistan and finding my photos among them will always remain of repute for me. www.flickr.com/photos/smrafiq/3235310139/

The August 2011, was a month setting a new milestone for my work when I was awarded a contract by the Asian Development Bank (Pakistan Chapter) which assigned me the task of photography and which they will make use of for the next five years. Under this contract, I had to snapshot for the ADB's (Asian Development Bank) respective projects which are in progress in Pakistan. This development was a booster and I really admire and honor as to own it.

Off and on my work is also publicized into different magazines and newspapers which keep my interest alive and which I love too much to the extent of craze almost and for this I always put my true efforts to make this activity best than the better.

    "Had a chance to glance Rafiq sb photostream lately after quite a while and I must confess that I am mesmerized. The Compositions are not only set to impress the viewer about the Sights and Surrounds of our beautiful Pakistan but at the same time carry a great deal of motivation to all fellow photographers. Very Well Done Sir, we look forward to see many more indulging views from your upcoming takes."
