The camera is an excuse to be someplace you otherwise don’t belong. It gives me both a point of connection and a point of separation.

(Somewhere in the hills)
I’m not a rain person and have often struggled to shoot the rain. Found this old photo which is my favourite rain picture. Taken on a bus while coming down the hills. It has got a certain stillness yet there is movement, it is black and white yet not gloomy, it makes me want to go outside inspite of the weather.
