This photograph is a firm example of the use of early morning Natural light during the winter season to create strong storytelling images. Shot at a remote rural corner of Bengal on a very cold winter morning, this photograph is an example of how the expanse of smoke emanating out of an elderly man’s cigar is exaggerated owing to the magic of Natural light creeping in through the plantation. While smoking is injurious to health, elderly gentlemen are often seen smoking locally manufactured “beedis” made out of local fibres and it’s almost like a morning chore for most apart from sipping tea. The smoke and light creates a magical ambiance and for me, a perfect silhouette as a result. Image specifications- 4016 x 6016 Shot in year - 2019 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.
