  1. there was a famous photographer once...he was so engroosed in his work ,that he had time for nothing...he woke up and clicked pictures of all
    vivid places in this world...all areas unexplored...with diffrent angles and connotations ...he always wanted people to see the world as he looks at it with his tiny camerra frame...all he knew was...his black
    camera..and how to get life out of what it captured..the vigour was immense...and immune to all materialistic wishes...once working in his lab...he thot to click what his life has been till now...so he laid down ...with his camerra near his foot...and with a tag on his foot saying...when i die... i shall be burried with my camerra...cz for years..this has been my life..and its source... :)

  2. a photographer came to a morgue to click the pictures of a man who was a homicide victim....none had come to claim its body...only the morgue no. tag was its identification...the photographer clickd this shot in this angle trying to potray the futility of life...the bare background adds to the meloncholy tone, the tag on foot makes the body look like a commodity whose worth is the no. attached to it...the camera on floor is the external touch, arranged in a way that the photographer had been analyzing the body and kept it down to shed the extra load...the additional baggage..

  3. The background shows tiles. They remind of my bathroom- more of the one at home than the one here. And the elevated part, which is not fully revealed, I assume that to be a tub in the bathroom such that the guy has extremely long legs which somehow cant fit into the tub so the leg so it falls out of it like its shown. The camera simply stands for what it is supposed to stand for-specifically a video. And the guy is a PORNSTAR so he is price-tagged and you might perhaps be failing to decipher the microscopic star rating at the bottom of the tag. He has got FIVE :P

  5. The war has come to an end. The immutable catastrophe is finally over....and it's only silence that hovers behind. Silence in the ebullient cheers of the winners, silence in the heart wrenching wails of the orphans, silence in the rustling of the dried leaves, silence in the footsteps on these impeccable white tiles and silence in the photographer's click.

    He was a shutterbug at the age of 9. All he had then was a cheap second hand camera gifted by his father for which the old man had to sell of his scooter. But that was enough to make the creative person within the child happy. This gift was all he had yearned for, this was his life's desire. Thus he grew up capturing everything that touched his heart. His father knew he'd be a successful photographer one day.

    That's exactly what happened. Now, he is 25, and the pictures clicked by him are rated among the best one's in the leading magazines of the country.
    Then what's the difference between the boy and the man.... Today, in spite of owning the costliest camera available, the man does not have his dad in his army uniform posing before him with a cheerful salute.
    He is standing in a hospital. It is his job to cover the aftermath of the war. Walking through the endless aisle, he came across the sweetest face his camera had ever captured. He is standing before his dad, but the face does not smile, the eyes don't light up, the soldier is now dead.

    The photographer is on his knees, and the camera lies unfocused beneath the bestower. The tag has his name and is still waiting to be claimed.
