I was born and raised in Goa. My photographic interests lie in landscapes, portraiture in natural light, street life, culture, religion, and photojournalism. Places that I find particularly inspiring are Goa, Iceland, and California.
I have shot extensively in my homeland of Goa, recording its surviving heritage and its sui generis ethos. I have documented in detail the destruction of Goa's environment and its rapid slide into the ugliness and urban chaos that characterizes today's India.
I am also a musician, with a lifelong association with the musical traditions of India. I live in California and spend extended time in Goa.

The colors are great! The scale is really made apparent by the temple. The tree on the right must be enormous.
Great depiction, marvellous colours. A friend of mine in Portugal just sent me the url for your photos and your blog. Some very interesting work here.
