Personal Statement

hi,,,,,,,,,
My Name is Owais zargar. My childhood was nourished with an age old adage, “A picture is worth thousand words”. However, it was my teen which cleared the blurred lens of my life by lifting its oblivion shutters. My critical eye to see things in a different angle acknowledged my suggestion to see things through camera lens. Now my only goal in life was to set the right aperture in order to get what others missed. And I was clicking everything coming my way. Gradually my zoom was getting better at capturing beautiful landscapes. Portrait shooting was no longer a causal affair, for my eye was appreciating every contour of it. My camera flashed at every event which became news. And my nose for news eventually transformed me into a photojournalist. Now working for a local daily, I am keep surfing big wigs of photojournalism to get some vital tips.
