I come from a family of photographers and taking to photography was quite natural to me. My Uncle Mr. Gowrishankar CH , was the first one to create a craze of photography in the family and this was taken to new heights by his brother H. Satish , who also happens to be my guide and mentor!

With the advent of satellite television in 1990's,  I started watching programs on Discovery and always wanted to grow up to be a naturalist. I would give up Sunday morning customary cricket match with friends to accompany Satish and his gang during their photo outings. Life had different plans and I had to take up a profession in IT industry to sustain myself and my family which includes by beautiful wife and mother, but I never left photography and took it as a serious hobby.

I hold two post graduate diplomas in computer application and a Master degree in computer applications. I still work for an IT company in Bangalore.

I'm very passionate about photography and nature in particular. My preference has been macro for a while and slowly I'm getting into exploring other subjects like travel, birds, landscapes etc.

In future I would like to work with with wildlife scientists, researchers, activists, and educators.

I'm open to any suggestions and offers with respect to photography and I also facilitate photography workshops and courses.
