- Come join me as I make my first visit to the historic city of Varanasi, India. With just a few hours to spare, I was under pressure to make most of this visually intense place. Expect some point of view street photography along with some tips and ideas from my perspective. Thanks for watching!

Thank you Raghav 🙏🏼
Great video, and looking forward to more!
Just want to drop by and say how much I appreciate your vision and your work. I enjoyed how you portrayed the people in the community and how you stacked the forms of your subjects within the frames. I also just want to say that I agree in regards to the part when you didn't go and join the other photographers, taking images of the wrestlers. I relate in a sense, it isn't about what else I could bring out from the images to what they are producing, but rather, trusting my own instinct and vision, which comes to subject about how we are photographing life, stories, and in the moment. I personally am naturally hungry to keep developing and growing as an artist, but more so as a person who can inhale the experience that life is providing, that means a sense of openness, which means all the stories that are happening simultaneously, within the stories that we are witnessing around us, and if I am not ready to accept that moment for me to photograph, or just as equal when I am open to receive that moment to photograph. I allow it.
Take care, and looking forward to seeing more from your work
just enlightened with your mindset on streets , will look forward for many tips & images Abhishek
Thank you so much Yagnesh!

I really enjoy your approach to photography and the great light and shadow in many of your images.
Thank you friend :)
I loved your photography but what I like even better is your mindset behind taking your images. We are visiting India at the end of the year and Varanassi is one of my most important destinations.

woowow sir.
A++ work. Love the images and the walk. Brilliantly done.
That’s very kind of you Jimi 🙏🏼 Thanks much! Varanasi has so much visuals to take in and it’s difficult not to come back with decent photos :)
Wow!!! Amazing video, well put together. Loved the photos and philosophy, very similar to mine as well as style. I am just prepping, and will be in Varanasi in two weeks, so I am getting excited. Thank you so much for sharing. I loved it all. Subscribed. Cheers!!!!

Keep up the good work sir ! Loved the shot of the photographers taking pictures, hahaha.
There were actually at least 5 more there so had to scoot off hehe. Thank you for the appreciation :)
@@abhishek.scariya It has always been a scary thing for me to invade the personal space or taking pictures without consent. I saw this documentary on Vivian Meir who took stunning street photographs, idk how she managed to do it without consent.
@@kalpeshboiser Yes it's surely a daunting challenge and one that is renewed each time we take the camera out on the street. But more than anything else, I have found that a the right mindset and motivation is the best way to tackle this and of course to be filled with empathy for what we are doing and the space we are in.
Was there any particular reaction from the people , did they offend you while making photographs ????
Most people don’t get offended if they understand that you are not having a nefarious motive :) but I have noticed that in western and largely developed countries, people are more skeptical of street photography.
Is this place safe for a solo female photographer?
Hi. Since it attracts a lot of tourists, yes should be fine largely as long as you take basic safety precautions.
I like what you do, unfortunately you talk too much
Thank you for the feedback Gerard. Hope the non-talking part helped you :)
