To take photographs is to hold one's breath when all faculties converge in the face of fleeing reality. It is at that moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy. To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. Its putting one's head, one's eye, and one's heart on the same axis.

-Henri Cartier Bresson.

HappyHorizons sees things most of us would walk past and not even notice ... The way he sees the world is full of beauty and emotion, even in the most imperfect places ... his photo's have the ability to render me speechless and I instantly *feel* what i'm seeing ...

Kshitiz Anand's photostream is such a pleasure to see. It's clear that he takes great joy from his work. The diversity of his subjects, his experiments, his truly remarkable portraits reveal a flourishing vision that we're all lucky he shares here on flickr.

HappyHorizons, the handle while it gives you the mental picture of a avid landscape photographer flung in the middle of rolling hills and lakes capturing nature, in reality is an amalgam of portrait addiction and a fetish of the 50mm. A hard-core portrait chap who's in denial that he is head over heels with this lens. His portraits evoke every every imaginable emotion. And with a affable persona, he approaches people, and they are more than willing to pose for him. Oh yeah and he smiles a lot! Strike up a conversation when you meet him, he'll tell you all about everything he's known. Pretty interesting and a courteous bloke, but just watch out for that 50mm springing outta nowhere to take your portrait. Quite a stealthy fella, did i mention that?
