My aim is to explore natural beauty to show that India is one of the great picturesque places.
Therefore, in my quest my avoid throngs of people as much as possible, I being straying away as far as possible from the mainstream and thus started my journey to discover another India. I’m sure everyone would be inspired by my work. Source: Dailymail
