Sunday Driver | Experiments With the Camera

Sunday Driver | Experiments With the Camera

A really lazy sunday for me. Mulling over what to do. Yes, there is always my laptop and the pictures courtesy my camera. And my subjects are my friends who willingly pose for me. I also follow Care Khan's diktat. Sharing is caring. So, here are some pictures I have recently captured of Karanvir Bohra, Harshad Chopda, Surbhi Jyoti and Shivya Pathania.

All in between the shoot or in the make-up room.

What do these pictures tell me?

These two pictures to me are the epitome of two people immersed in each other. A world created where only the two of them exist.

I am glad that they for one pose for me to create such a world and while it is not easy for them to pose for me in this fashion, after a few clicks, we do get what we aspire to. The experiment with my camera is all about capturing a moment, a moment that either happens or is created with right elements thrown in. Just as my Guru has advised. I believe these pictures are about making a picture. Do they say something to you?

Here is another one that I had to ensure I got with the sun shining on them in patterns, the magic hour captured. Now, why did i turn this one into black and white was just to show that the brightness is not about having colour but what their expressions tell. Looking into the distance, they perhaps are looking at the same thing. Ek hi manzil ki aur, nazarein tiki hai... Raasta kaisa hai kya fikar, jab humsafar tu hai..!

This one is about being caught. Yes, the person clicking them is caught capturing them is what I felt this was all about. She is still immersed in her thought but he realised there is someone watching and he could not let that not be known.

These two pictures are so similar that I am astounded. I never realised I had captured a candid moment with Shivya and Harshad where before I really got them to pose they were sharing a moment and this to me is an example of what I felt when I saw them through the viewfinder. A sense of camaraderie.

Similarly, here Surbhi is watching Karanvir smile with laughter in his eyes and his happiness is reflected in her smile.

Well, these are some of the pictures that I have taken, hope you like them. And yes, do tell, which one would you like, may be one of each couple, as wallpaper. We want to see how many votes these pictures get.

Are we playing this Sunday?
