SUMMARY:Pictures Brighten Lives...
DESCRIPTION:YPS Meet | Oct 05\, Sat | 6:30 PM | YPS Hall\n‘VISMAYA‘ which translates to ‘AMAZEMENT’ & ‘AWE’ is exactly what you feel when you see their presentation called –  “Pictures brighten lives…..”\nVismaya group is a closely knit team consisting of 8 photo enthusiasts: Amar Bhaskar\, Murali Santhanam\, Sisir Kumar\, Venugopal Thantry\, Vinod Balan\, Goutham Ramesh\, Harish Rao & Sridhar Thantry.\nThey share a common vision of using photography to lend a helping hand to the needy.\nWith their theme “Photography for Cause” they bring  together the dream to nurture  talent and the intent to support social cause.  Their mission is to generate financial contributions to organizations committed to serve human cause. \n \nThey say “Every year we photographers churn out a large number of pictures\, many of which end up in social web and just occupy space on hard drive. Some of them find space on our walls and many more get exhibited around the world to earn us titles. Pictures can do a lot more than that if they find their way to other’s walls! ” \nThe Vismaya team will share – \n🔸How these exhibitions shaped  their photography and outlook on pictures they clicked. \n🔸Their experiments with different techniques used to make the images reach the donors. \n🔸Their experience working with multiple social organisations \n🔸Their learnings from motivating general public to donate. \n🔸How the team learns photography as a group. \n🔸The team will also display their pictures that have contributed to the success of their exhibitions. \nAbout the Speakers\nAmar Bhaskar\nA management executive by profession\, Amar’s passion for photography has driven him to capture precious moments in time. Watching nature through the lens has been his most thrilling and satisfying experience. Apart from nature\, he has been actively pursuing and clicking images of ancient architecture. When it comes to photography\, he is disciplined and critical about his work so that only the best of his pictures see the light. \nMurali Santhanam\nMurali Santhanam has retired from his career spanning Banking and Information Technology. His interest in photography was kindled during his early ages by a book titled “Kodak Camera Guide” and has been pursuing the hobby for two decades.  Passionate about travel photography he aspires to document monuments and architectures\, lifestyles\, religion and events. \nSisir Kumar\nSisir Kumar is a Resource Management professional and is passionate about photographing nature\, places of interest and monuments. He is a keen macro photographer with avid interests in nature and architecture. Sisir experiments with long exposures and night photography applying techniques in capturing everyday moments of nature.  He also specializes in experimenting with rarely used combinations of gadgets in taking his pictures. \nVenugopal Thantry\nEngineer by profession\, Venu got interested in photographic art and technique when he saw stunning images of renowned photographers in Kannada weekly magazine ‘Sudha’\, way back in seventies. Interested in all kinds of photography\, his heart lies in pictorial photography which provides freedom to mix and match elements and colors on the frame just like a painter. While appreciating nature\, he uses this media to expose beautiful things of nature. \nVinod Balan\nBalan Vinod works in a high pressure IT Audit profession\, believes in experiencing nature before framing it into a photograph\, thereby\, trying to capture beyond what is visible and intends to get the viewer an exotic view of the nature. For him photography is a play between light and dark\, with emotion and character. His photographs are captured keeping a balance between painting and a photograph transforming his common subjects into an abstract frame. \nGoutham Ramesh\nAn Information Technology Architect by profession\, he took keen interest in photography right from his student days and has gone through different and obsessive phases of photographing subjects like macro\, nature\, travel and people. His work “Canvas of Light” uses light as an important aspect of his images. He is at his best with landscapes and architecture and macro images. \n  \nHarish Rao\nA software consultant by profession\, he got inspired into photography by the work of Michael Melford\, the numero uno Nat Geo photographer. Harish loves nature photography and spends time carefully capturing the minute details of nature and the beautiful colors and expressions of the birds. He enjoys this new found passion and tries to practice photography techniques. \nSridhar Tantry\nSridhar Tantry\, a retired Bank professional\, more a photo enthusiast than a photographer. Attracted and Influenced into the photography by his elder brother\, believes that good photograph is the one when a photographer views the subject differently and able to picturise it through the camera. \n-YPS Executive Committee

SUMMARY:Master Your Lenses
DESCRIPTION:YPS Meet | Sept 28\, Sat | 6:30 PM | YPS Hall\nEvery photographer has a bag-full of lenses that stay with them even when the bodies change. Some of them are favourites and stay on the body most of the time while others are rarely used. And all of us also have a longer wishlist of lenses that we want in the bag. This session will focus on how to understand the strengths and weakness of your lenses and how to use them to make the type of pictures one wants. A better understanding of the lens will also help the Photographer to make technically superior pictures. Finally\, the session will help you understand how to build your portfolio of lenses suitable for the pictures you make. \nAbout the Speaker\nMurali Santhanam\nMurali Santhanam is a retired Information Technology professional. His photographic journey over the last decade and half has been shaped by friends from YPS and from group Vismaya\, a small group doing “Photography for Cause”. His interest in photography started after reading Kodak Guide for Photography so much that the very first investment that he made after getting employed\, was to buy a camera. He was drawn to photography by the science behind the photography and this interest has continued to help him develop his own  techniques for producing technically better pictures. Association with YPS and Vismaya shaped his understanding of elements of a picture and composition of elements. The one learning from Mr. Anand Sharan\, Bangalore School of Arts and Photography\, that underlies all his pictures is “Background makes a picture”. Murali learns by experimenting and shares his knowledge readily. \nYPS had also given an opportunity over the last few years to serve the members. He applied his IT knowledge to create the YPS Portal and Salon submission and judging software. He was a co-creator of Creative Photo Artist for collective learning through honest discussions.\n\nHere are some of the images by Murali Santhanam. \n \n \n \n \n \n \nPalace and Crescent\nTrishul mountain lit during Sunset showing the three spikes\n  \n-YPS Executive Committee

SUMMARY:Timeless Landscape - A Slideshow by Annechira Shiva
DESCRIPTION:YPS Meet | March 30\, Sat | 6:30 PM | State Youth Centre\nLandscapes\, they sometime take us to timeless moments. Capturing such beauty is always breathtaking.\nOur next YPS Meet is a slideshow Timeless Landscape by Mr. Annechira Shiva.  \nAbout the Author\n \n\n\n\n\nMr. Annechira Shiva \n\n\n\n\nPopularly known as Shiva Gandhi is a professional photographer from Bangalore. He grew up with sketches and painting in his tender age. His obsession with art grew tremendously and he nourished it into a passionate hobby during his college times with the help of camera rolls. After his graduation in electronics Engineering\, he went on to work as a photojournalist and editor with America Online for 8 years. \nThe intense desire as an artist deep within him triggered to an extent that he decided to take up photography as his profession\, independently. Shiva has depicted the lifestyle of various personalities including actors\, models\, dancers\, writers\, musicians\, politicians\, businessmen and sports personalities through editorial and commercial assignments. His works were appreciated and awarded the “Best Lifestyle Award” in the year 2016. \nTravel and Nature Photography is not as easy as ‘just Click’\, says Shiva. The sketch/framework of the image created in his mind\, which then is slowly and carefully nurtured into series of thoughts linking it to its heritage\, history\, present and to its timeless beauty. These deep compositions in his mind create an imaginary picturesque of the scene. He transfers this imaginary picture into his camera. This requires perfect lighting knowledge\, combination of various angles\, camera adjustments\, and indeed lots of patience and perseverance. \nHis mind does not compromise\, till it is satisfied when it compares the imaginary image to the captured one. Shiva does not favour retouching the images / interference of too much photoshop with the captured image. His photography not only invokes strong feelings within us\, but transports us to that very scene/place. Shiva believes original and natural is priceless. \nHis current passion is to pay tribute to world renowned painting into photographic images without the use of any photographic strobe lights. He has mastered the technique of creating ainting like images by using primitive lighting methods. He spends considerable amount of time in understanding and experimenting various methods to create unique images. As a creative photographer\, his way of training has got him recognition as a master of photography for studio lighting and compositions \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEquipments: He handles sophisticated cameras like Mamia\, Hasselbald\, Canon\, Nikon\, Arri Alexa\, Epic and Sony with ease . He gives life to his Images through his Artistic mind frame and acquired technical knowledge. \nFuture Works: His unique piece of work is a feast to the eyes of the art and nature lovers to dote over\, and calmness to the soul within. While his awesome gallery is stunning to behold\, it is definitely worth a visit. His maiden Exhibition is based on Nature’s SCAPES. His other series of Exhibitions are based on Heritage\, Tribute to Painters [Raja Ravi Varma\, John William Godward]\, Wildlife\, and more to come. \nSome of Mr. Shiva’s work \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLets us meet this Saturday at YPS for a breathtaking visual  experience by Mr. Shiva Gandhi. \n-YPS Executive Committee

SUMMARY:3D Photography - Challenges and Techniques
DESCRIPTION:YPS Meet | January 19\, Sat | 6:30 PM | State Youth Centre\nWe see the world with two eyes and understand the depth of what is in front of us. And as most of our cameras fail in capturing the depth of a scene\, it is all flat. It was in 1840s when the world heard about the 3D Photography\, also known as Stereoscopic Photography\, for the first time ever. \nAt the next YPS Slideshow meet let us understand the art of capturing and displaying three dimensional images from a renowned 3D Photographer Mr. Nanda Kumar! \n \nThe world was already over whelmed when the word “Photography” was introduced for the first time in history\, as we could capture the light in reality. And when they heard 3D Photography\, it was a WOW moment! \nThe challenges involved in 3D Photography and the technology required in executing the same will be explained by Mr. nanda Kumar\, combined with his own experience and display of images created by him. \nAbout Mr. Nanda Kumar \n \nMr. Nanda Kumar son of Shri.Subba Rao and Smt.Kamalamma\, is a senior photographer in media industry from the cultural city of Mysore.  He had interest in photography from his high school days itself and got inspired by the great Puttanna Kanagal Kannada film director for his black and white photography techniques. He could not continue his formal education after his SSLC  as he lost his parents.  He was on his own at very young age itself.  He concentrated on full time photography and participated on national level Hoysala photography award and won first place in both colour and black & white category.   He served many years as photo journalist for state and local newspapers. He worked for Prajavani and Deccan Herald as official photographer for 10 years from Hassan.  He held a Photo Exhibition of his pictures on babies\, Wildlife\, Birds\, Photo journalism for the first time in Hassan and it was inaugurated by Kannada film director Nagathihalli Chandrashekar. He was greatly inspired by the film Chota Chetan 3D movie and started research on the 3D technics and met technicians of the movie and received guidance.   He took it as a challenge\, after 7 years of research and developement with so many cameras and technics he invented his own 3D Camera setup.  He later did research for 3D glass through out India and after he made his own set up of 3D camera and 3D glasses he started experimenting at the events like birthdays\, marriages and other events and tasted success. \nIn the year 2012 he launched his own website with the hands of great cine actor and senior photographer Shri.

SUMMARY:TRAVEL PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY -  A Slideshow by Mr. Russell Dmello
DESCRIPTION:YPS Meet | November 17\, Sat | 6:30 PM | State Youth Centre\nWe all love to travel and we all love to take portraits. How about taking portraits while you travel? Photographing people you don’t know can be a very challenging and a different experience all together. \nThe next YPS meet is a slideshow by Russell Dmello on “Travel Portrait Photography”. \n \nMr. Russell Dmello \nRussell Dmello is a wedding and travel portrait photographer by profession. Earlier based in Dubai\, now in Bengaluru to pursue his passion towards photography. Russell is the co-founder of Photowalk Bengaluru\, one of the popular photography clubs in Bengaluru with a member base of over 4000 members. \nRussell says –\n“I loves travel portraits. Not only do they test your photography skills but also challenge you to interact with people in unfamiliar environments. The end result directly reflects your subject’s personality along with your ability to make them feel at ease\, read the light\, select optimal settings\, and compose a great shot.\n\nAs a photographer\, it’s up to you to develop your own code of ethics. The initial approach can often be the hardest part; taking the shot is comparatively easy. \nAim for a consensual\, mutually enjoyable exchange from which you can both walk away with a happy story to tell. Be open\, smile\, and pay people compliments. If it’s a firm no\, you can smile warmly\, tell them it’s absolutely fine\, and ask them if they would like to see photos you’ve taken of the local area. This way\, you can both still walk away having had a pleasant experience\, and sometimes\, they even change their mind. \nYour challenge now is to make your subject feel at ease. The best portraits come when people are relaxed and open to you. Most crucially\, don’t rush the photo\, say goodbye\, and walk away. Show genuine interest in their lives. Ask questions if you can speak a mutual language. If not\, remember that much of your intentions and warmth can be communicated through body language\, facial expressions\, and gestures.” \n\n  \nLet’s meet this Saturday at YPS to know more about the Travel Portrait Photography by Russell Dmello! \nYPS Executive Committee \n
