Medium: Photography

Edition: 1/1

Collection: The Enlightenment - Series I

Shot at the iconic Coffee House, College Street in Calcutta in December 2016, this image showcases the importance of good light and fast hands in creating a magical rendition. The impact of early morning light appearing from the light window on the 2nd floor creates a “spotlight effect” to accentuate the red color of the little kid’s hoodie who was running down the old staircases of the building. Very interestingly, if you observe closely, there is a cat resting in the smaller window right beneath the upper half of the image, which builds on to the story-line. However, this shot wasn’t really easy to execute since the width of the beam was narrow and I had to wait for approximately 35-40 minutes for a subject to pass through exactly that spot; also, to be noted, the direction of light was changing continuously in this stretch. Hence, in spite of the fact that this photograph was clicked during the earlier half of my journey as a photography enthusiast, I consider this as one of my best creations over the years.

Image specifications- 3045 × 5412

Shot in year - 2016

Device- Canon EOS 550D

About the collection: Chasing light or "finding light" has been quite a fascination for me right from the childhood days. Not just because of the sheer visual delight that it brings on to the table, but the way it adds a strong element of story-telling to your otherwise mundane photographs. I have been shooting "God-light" both early in the morning during winters as well as late afternoon but one thing is in common- these "dramatic" images often end up inducing the feeling of "enlightenment" and contentment in the entire process.

This is the first series called "Enlightenment" and has 15 images shot across India primarily during the winter season when the impact of sun-rays is the maximum. You can connect with me on Instagram @Deckle_Edge for better understanding.

We often refer to natural light or beams of light as "God rays" primarily because it perhaps establishes a direct connect between the Almighty and the artist who paints his creations on the canvas of possibilities.
