What Happens in Ooty…
Gets uploaded on Flickr!
For those who weren’t informed, I am now in Ooty and will be here for a year. I am doing a specialized course in photography at Light and Life Academy. Given my transition from a professional to a student again it would be too presumptuous to continue writing tutorials. So at least for a year, this blog turns into a regular photo blog. I will of course try and include whatever technical details about the shots that I can. I am shooting 24/7 right now and am on an extremely shaky internet connection. It’s like being back on dial up. Well 256 kbps feels like dial up anyway. I actually saw that buffering symbol on YouTube.
So these are the hallowed halls in which I’ll be spending a year. Week 3 has begun and the workload has started piling up. I am not complaining. Except for the lack of light. My current assignment is to shoot sunny skies and the way it’s raining here would make a Londoner feel at home.
Asking photographers to be miracle workers is a little too much. I mean yea, most of us are really hoopy froods but weather control is not part of our job profile. It has been a blast though. Especially since some of us are part circus creatures.
The train shot is probably a massive cliché but it had to be done. No reasons, it just had to be. This is happily just the beginning. Lots more where those came from.
