These are a collection of images which I have put together from my last trip before lockdown. I was in India for the festival of Holi. I chose them because they reflect the feel of something magical that the people and places of India inwardly possess. It makes me feel joy. My photography is my escape just unfortunately not my career. I have studied it both practically and academically. I have worked for photographers and others that use imagery to compliment their work, but I have a family so my photography is my companion that just bubbles away beside it all. These images come from a workshop I attended with my mentors. They are my friends fundamentally and two brothers who are phenomenal Indian street photographers - Vineet and Rohit Vohra. My approach has always been towards portraits and documentary and so I am enjoying the details which ‘street’ illustrates and I'm now applying it to my train of thought and process.
