Immersed in our busy lives, we are sometimes forced to forgo nature's beauty. Nikhil likes to capture nature's poetry via the art of photography. An award winning photographer, his work has been published on post cards, greeting cards, posters, newsletters, magazines and web sites. His fine art prints are part of many private collections and have been in several exhibits in the Washington Metropolitan area.
Nikhil leads photography workshops and tours and offers private instruction. He also teaches photography at the Metropolitan Center for the Visual Arts (VisArts) in Rockville, Maryland and at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Vienna, Virginia. His instruction is focused on in-camera interpretation and developing personal vision rather than simply following "the rules". He believes that trying to impart a fresh perspective is the biggest challenge in photography.
While Nikhil's primary interests are landscape, wildlife and fine art nature photography, he has also photographed corporate events, award functions, weddings and even delved in portraiture and studio photography. His current photo gear includes the Nikon D300 and D200 camera bodies and a variety of lenses with focal lengths ranging from 10mm to 400mm.
Nikhil lives in Maryland (USA) and does most of his photography close to home, in the Washington metropolitan area. However, his travels have taken him around the country.
He is also a volunteer photographer for the National Park Service and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. |
