ABOUT

DSC_8943Welcome to my website!

Hello…thank you for the visit! A bit about myself…

I am in my 60’s, 68 to be precise (June 2018)! It is a myth that life begins at a particular age-mostly much earlier than the 60’s!  However, I feel like my life has JUST BEGUN!  

I enjoy photography, I have been a ‘photographer’ pretty much all my adult life, but I got into ‘serious photography’ about two years back. And I enjoy travel…been doing that for almost 2 1/2 decades.

Since starting photography two years back(in 2016), I have been ‘shooting’ with passion, almost an obsession, you might call it!  I have always loved to travel and in the past 6-7 years, done a lot of it, mostly SOLO!  I have added overseas travel in addition to domestic.  

I find the world a fascinating place and the people fascinating as well.  Travel opens up ones mind. I find that the landscape, when viewed through the eye of the lens, offers very different views!  This is what I want to share with my ‘audience’!

I am mostly a landscape/astro photographer.  The night shooting is very exhilirating-the mysteries of the moon, stars, and the Milky Way! 

Hope you will linger and read my blogs including my travel blogs and view the pictures I have taken on my various travels, as well as those ‘shot’ in my home town!  

Thank you, and please feel free to leave comments, would really appreciate it!

Please visit again as new content is being added. And please go through the dropdown menu at the top of the page for my personal and travel blog and my photography. .

    1. Thanks so much Ed! I am just seeing it today…sorry for the late reply! My goal is to get this updated, has been a learning curve. But WordPress has changed their editing software(?) or something like that. So want to get going and devote this year to my blog-travel and photography. Will post on FB when I have something new to offer. Please visit periodically…thanks!

    Hi Kamala, Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. I have a question if you don’t mind. I’m traveling from Baltimore to Grand canyon tomorrow, and love to visit Antelope canyon. Was Antelope Canyon open? I saw your pictures from Antelope in google map!

    1. Hi…I am not sure if they are open. I was there a couple of years back. Best to go on the website and check it out. Good luck! It is beautiful, by you have to book a tour. It is on Indian land and restricted access.

    1. Thank you Tony! I’d love to consider your kind invitation. I’m in the thick of getting ready to go to Mexico to photograph the total solar eclipse. By the third week of April, I should be free. Thanks again for the invite! ~Kamala
