Hello all!!
This Khalid from Bangladesh, pursuing my career in a telecommunication industry, whereas Photography is my serious hobby/passion. 3 Years back, In the mid of Year 2009 I started my photography with Sony H 7 point and shot then switch to DSLR Nikon D90 which is still in my bag and only gear to shot.
I started it with Online Group Through the Lens (TTL) and Bangladeshi Photographers(BP) in Bangladesh who arrange different photo walks around the city, photo safaris round the country , attending those I started learning and self taught photographer also.
I found my interest in Life Style photography which is a very vast area to shoot. The life of people in Bangladesh formed a rich heritage which make me shoot the life, the culture, the heritage, the face / emotion of people, different festival, some rare cultural activities in our country, beauty of Bangladesh and overall the true essence of the people which is unique. The variation in life style of Bengali people also works as inspiration to shot them.
At the same time, interest moving from art photography toward documentary photography. Let’s see what’s ahead!!
