Your Bio

I am a nature photographer with a passion for flower pictures. I concentrate mostly on macro photography, which gives intimacy to my work.

I share my time between California and south India. Most of my photography is done at my summer home in the Nilgiri hills, South India, 7500 feet above sea level.
