Love for Places and People
ABHIJIT DHARMADHIKARI

Abhijit Dharmadhikari is a resident of Mumbai. He is a ‘serious amateur’ in photography and likes to capture city life and especially the people. In his last year of Engineering, his parents gifted him a Canon AE-1 film camera and since then, photography enthralled him. 
During his college days, he did an introduction course of photography with Mr. Fakhruddin Motiwala, and after a few years did another course at The Photographic Society of India (PSI) under the guidance of Mr. Kishore Jothady; who truly developed deep love for black & white photography in him.  
He likes to shoot landscapes, cityscapes, monuments, silhouettes…but his heart truly savors shooting people. He is fascinated by the sheer diversity of people and culture of India. Capturing strangers’ faces of different cultures is like self-exploration for him; which involves communicating with people and building a good rapport with them before clicking. That’s something very challenging! Portraits, full of life, created by legendary photographer, Mr. K.G.Maheshwari inspire him a lot.
He remembers reading a quote by Henri Cartier Bresson, "Your first ten thousand photographs are your worst!”  Believing this and taking into consideration his inadequate experience, he says that he is yet to be born on the arena of photography. According to him he has a long-long way to go!
