I am an Engineering graduate and a lawyer from Chennai, TN India; photography, cartooning and art are some of my ongoing hobbies.
While I want to increase my photography output and skills, I am trying to find inspiration from everyday life. As a result I gorge on every real opportunity to take photographs, like family events, travel, holidays, and sometimes even from moving vehicles/cars/trains.
Present equipment
Canon EOS 550D with the 18-135mm IS kit lens. 50mm f 1.8 added to my kitty.
iPhone 5S with the Camera+ app.
Fujifilm Finepix S1500 (retired).
I still use my old 5 Megapixel Canon Powershot S50 occasionally. It's amazing how 5 MP is still plenty of juice for the money and how crisp and lovely shots can be taken from a humble old P & S.
Critique request
I humbly request my photostream visitors to critique my photos with honesty and let me know what you like and don't like about something. I appreciate constructive criticism and I hope you take the time to help me out. I'm the kind who'll reciprocate.
Photostream updates explanation
My photostream is updated sporadically and often in no particular order. Sometimes I will upload a very old photograph (usually labelled "from the archives") which I feel is worthy of sharing.
I generally avoid uploading in bulk so that my contacts get to see most of my work in leisure. That way I also share different photos taken at different points of time to lend a bit of variety to the front page.

Harishankar has a very keen eye for visual composition and detail. His trusty Canon PowerShot S50 continues to serve him well despite its age even though he new owns a brand new Fujifilm Finepix S1500. He is a great example of a hobbyist photographer who makes the most of any camera in his hands. You can just imagine his potential once he gets into dSLR photography with great lenses!
