Fog is an interesting thing in the true sense to work on. Foggy weather in the early morning at Kolkata maidan is such an interesting scene for photo enthusiasts. Normally December to February these three months are termed as the winter season in Kolkata.
In these months a dense fog is seen in the early morning in Kolkata maidan. Basically, Maidan is a large and vast ground of Kolkata which is called the ‘Lungs of Kolkata’. A lot of people used to do yoga, exercise, jogging, running, and playing in the early morning at Maidan. Sunrise through extremely foggy weather and activities of people and horses creates a beautiful environment all over.
About Dipanjan Chakraborty
I am Dipanjan Chakrborty. I am Kolkata based street and documentary photographer. I have been documenting Kolkata for the last few years. As a photographer, my perspective remains to explore street photography as a key to reach the common people and their lives. I love to tell stories through my lens.
Every frame tells a story but when we create a story within a frame, it makes the frame more beautiful. After being a street and documentary photographer my course of life has entirely changed. I have started photography from my childhood. But I have had a craze for photography since my childhood, whenever I could get a mobile or camera from anyone I would always try to capture my surrounding people and their daily life.
I love to see photos daily, in social media I used to watch various kinds of pictures from different countries and different photographers that helped me to increase my knowledge. When I make a plan to go out for a shoot at first I used to make research on that particular subject or project on which I am going to do my work, then I used to make a plan on that particular place and time when my shoot takes place, because time is more important in street photography. But sometimes when I go out with my equipment I capture various candid moments on the street I am using a Sony A6000 mirrorless camera right now. I have used a DSLR earlier but mirrorless is giving me such a great output, especially in low light mirrorless is a revolution.
