About

Life is how you see it. A long time ago, when I used to look at life through my eyes wide open, I saw it all at the same time. The order, and the clutter. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Something changed over the last few years as I have started looking through the constraining frame of a camera viewfinder. The world is suddenly a different place. I am beginning to see things I didn't know existed. I am able to find beauty in strange things.

I live in beautiful California. I have learned to combine the other things I enjoy most, visiting places and hiking, to photography. So I am very rarely outdoors without a camera.

There so much to see in this world.

Lets look at it together.

Nikon D80
Nikkor and Sigma lenses

Black and white and color fine art digital photography by Amit Basu. Gallery contains: landscape, portrait, abstract, zen, nature, people, places, men, women, children, family etc. Whats likely missing are: business, glamor, fashion, action, sports, wedding photography. All/most photos use natural light, not artificial. These are not shot in studios, and are possibly not of stock photography quality. Equipment used: Camera body: Nikon d80. Lenses: Nikkor 50mm prime, 60mm micro/macro, 18-70mm wide angle, 55-200mm zoom, Sigma 10-20mm ultra wide angle. Post-processed (sometimes to black and white (b&w)) using Photoshop or Picasa (mostly). I love to shoot in either aperture priority or manual mode. Very few photos here use shutter priority. Most photos are shot hand-held. Tripod used rarely. This is an amateur photography site. Please do not expect professional photography quality work.
