Candid Moods

S

oumik Sengupta—an Inspector in the Kolkata Police Force—

grew up amidst �lora and fauna in Berhampore, Murshidabad,

West Bengal. Different kinds of butter�lies and birds always

caught his attention. It was during his college that he was given a

�ilm camera. He started capturing different family ocassions. After a

signi�icant period of time, he further chose to widen his knowledge

of photography and purchased his �irst D-SLR—the Nikon D90 with

an 18-105mm lens. Photographers like Alan Murphy and Raymond

Barlow have in�luenced him. He also follows the work of Indian photographers like Sudhir

Sivaram ,Raj Dage, Amit Rane and Rathika Ramashami. Other than bird photography, he also

enjoys capturing festivals like the Hornbill festival in Nagaland. His yearn to learn more about

photography increases with every passing day. He is driven by the desire to create many more

wonderful pictures. |SP
