Edition: 1/1
Collection: The Enlightenment - Series I
Shot at Koley Market in Calcutta during the early winter morning, this image showcases how “cut light” or “god rays” emanating from the windows of the market can create a dramatic impact on any subject passing through this spot. Smoke particles and dust further accentuates the effect of early morning light which coupled with the back-light “wrapped” around the human figure with a relatively shallow depth of field, adds that magical touch to this image. When I was taking this shot, this man was instructing his little kid to catch up with his pace and walk alongside, leading to this posture. It is often said that “Early bird catches the worm” and this photograph is a true manifestation of the fact that if you sacrifice a bit of your comfort of sleeping for an extra hour on a Sunday morning, you can end up creating some memorable photographs. This photograph is special to me because of the impact of the moment and the candidness of the reaction of my subject “in silhouette” in this frame.
Image specifications- 6016 × 4016 Shot in year - 2020 Device- Nikon D750
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.

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.
