Say cheeeeese!


I’ve been practicing portraiture in the photography course. The key to good portraits is to ALWAYS flatter your subject (in the picture, maybe verbally too), especially if they take the effort to pose for you. On this India trip, I had a few ‘bakras’ (literally), lots of family, and some unsuspecting but very willing random models, and plenty of practice. No animals were harmed in taking these pictures, but some humans may have been tickled. Enjoy!

  4. Great snaps and witty tags! Liked the Bengal Tigress One a lot! For mine and Souvik’s picture- “Sunny Deol and Shah Rukh Duplicates” would have been more apt!!
