An introduction to myself

Dear Friend,

I'm living in Bangalore which is the Information Technology hub of India. My hometown is Trivandrum which is the capital of Kerala. My sweet family has my Father, Mother and younger Sister. I'm a software developer by profession, working for different clients from around the world.

I enjoy coding very much. It’s my passion since my 7th standard to program and learn new languages and technologies. This quench for new technologies got me introduced to some of the very interesting visual tools such as Photoshop, flash, etc.

Later when I started software development as a profession, I learned many aspects of web development mainly focusing on development for intranet and internet solution for my clients.

Photography is my hobby. I like to click images which captures the amazing moment nature creates using a combination of light.

I started clicking snaps when I got my first camera as a gift from my dearest friend. It was a Canon Powershot A520. I decided to learn the basics of photography, because using the 'auto' mode in the camera not always given what I actually wanted to capture. The terminologies and techniques used in photography were alien to me then.

Internet was the only source of help for me for my photographic learning journey. Mastering the basics allowed me to explore the different aspects in my little camera. And now I have my new DSLR, the Canon EOS 40D with a Canon 28-135 IS USM lens. It’s a magic machine in itself. It clicks fabulous images. I use Canon image processor for processing my RAW images and slight touches using Photoshop to enhance those images.

During my experiments with Photoshop I have come across many techniques and sequence of actions that created wonderful effects on a photograph. I thought it would be a good idea to share different learning I came across. From my experience, internet is the best place where I can share my learning with photographic enthusiasts around the globe.

Hope the posts I add to my blog will be useful for you.

Thanks,
Manoj C V
