Photographer Krutik Thakur Captures People’s Silhouettes And Stories During Sunset

Written by : 121clicks Team

From an early age, I had a passion for photography, envisioning it as a lifelong hobby regardless of my future career path. As the years passed, my love for photography grew, and I delved deeper into the art form. However, the onset of the pandemic limited my shooting locations to a few spots in my town. Undeterred, I began capturing the same sunset from different angles, exploring various creative ideas and techniques, ultimately diving into the world of sunset photography.

My journey into sunset silhouettes truly took off when I had the chance to use a DSLR for the first time. I was captivated by its capabilities and realized that owning a camera could transform my photography. Yet, the financial constraints of college fees and camera expenses loomed large. Undeterred, I borrowed my friend’s camera, learning the ropes and honing my skills. I even rented a camera to practice my craft further. Sunset after sunset, I yearned for my own camera to enhance my skills.
