Where do I go from here
Tell me, where do I go from here
You said you’d take me through the years
So where do I go from here

A film maker from India who has recently rediscovered his passion for photography.
@Rick: Thank you Rick. That is probably because I shoot very instinctively, from my subconscious, without any planning whatsoever....the picture is forming even as I am shooting...all I am aware of at that moment is the emotions running through my body and mind and that is what makes it work for me...finally in the post I work to bring the image to depict the emotion as closely as possible to what I had felt... This one is very very close.
@Phil David Morris: Thank you Phil. My photography is very personal to me as I neither have to make a living out of it nor am I dependent on funding from other sources to make it possible, unlike my movies where the reverse is true. Hence my films are not what I had set out to do, well not yet, but yes, you will certainly find many glimpses of the same work that you see here. But I still hold the dream and someday I hope to have the opportunity to make a film that will qualify as world cinema:)
@Stephen Phillips: Thank you Stephen. I have always been very drawn to the power of unorthodox use of focus. I have used it very often in my films. Here it was a very deliberate choice. I could well have cranked up the ISO to 3200 and shot at 1/125th sec... So glad this works for you:)
@larans: Yes Larans...nothing is just by chance:) Thank you so much for looking so deeply...:)
@k@: Thank you Karine! I was quite sure you would like this:)
@SOUL AFLAME: Thank you Paul...the sun had already set and in that fading light it was an inspired moment...My focus was on her and despite the motion blur that was inevitable I knew I had a picture!
@Franz: Thank you Franz! 'A fragile moment': that's beautifully put:)
@Jyoti: Thanks Jyoti!
@Michael: Thank you Michael, for one of the best comments I have ever received! I love bending the rules and like to go where one is not supposed to, for only then we can discover ourselves!
@Magrat: Thank you Magrat! This would have been so ordinary if it was in sharp focus:)
@Bettina: I guess you do Betty! Thanks and Cheers!
