Travel Presentation | Saturday, 02 May | 7:00 PM | Google Meet

Presentation by: Dr Prashanth Kulkarni

This presentation captures Dr Kulkarni’s travel experience in Japan through the lens of photography, focusing on the art of planning a trip and exploring the country during the iconic sakura (cherry blossom) season. It showcases the blend of preparation and spontaneity that shapes a photographer’s journey — from selecting locations to timing visits with the fleeting bloom. 

Through a street photography perspective, the presentation highlights how Japan’s urban charm, cultural nuances, and everyday moments transform beneath a canopy of blossoms. It aims to inspire thoughtful travel and visual storytelling, offering insight into how careful planning can reveal the extraordinary within the ordinary.

About Dr Prashanth Kulkarni

Dr Prashanth Kulkarni is a Life Member of YPS and an urologist by profession, working in Bengaluru.

He took up photography seriously during the COVID period and since then has been travelling extensively to document various festivals across South India.

While he is fascinated by all genres of photography, he is more inclined toward street and documentary photography. The primary reason is that it allows him to express his perspective through the images he create wherever he goes.

Dr Kulkarni aims to use this medium of expression to tell stories in his own way
