Staying true to Nikons tagline "At the heart of the image", placed myself at the core of holi activities this time around.
For the last 2 years during my coverage of Holi at Barsana and Nandgaon, I had concentrated on creating picture-perfect postcard images of the grandeur, which meant shooting from the rooftop of the temple with a 70-200. Considerably safer option.
Now that I was done with it, it was now time to put myself in between the chaos. 24-70 took over the job, it was all about getting close.
I don't think my camera has ever been subjected to as much intense beating as this. Colored water literally filling my lens hood, front element fogging up and what not. Meanwhile, I don't think I ever had so much fun celebrating holi, it was fantastic being at the epicentre of it all.
