He says “Many times what we miss out are the smaller things which are the building blocks for a whole package called NATURE.  Macro photography allows me to highlight these small and beautiful creatures with their amazing adaptability in their surroundings. When I spoke to some school kids about ‘Saving our oceans’ I found that their idea of the ocean is mostly limited to whales\, dolphins\, sharks\, seals and other mega fauna of the oceans. These are small efforts to create a deeper understanding of our oceans through macro photography.” \n\n  \nAbout the Presenter \nMr Kedar Bhide \nKedar Bhide is Managing Director at Nature Works (www.natureworksindia.com).

The work of Arunachal Pradesh was also featured in an Animal Planet Documentary called ‘When Bamboo Flowers’. He has also received a National Award for his work on snake conservation from Indian Herpetological Society. \nHis photography work has been used in many books and publications on wildlife and nature in India and abroad. He has been a judge for nature and wildlife themes in various photography competitions including Better Photography’s Photographer Of The Year\, for 5 years\, as well as Thane Mayor’s Photography Competition in 2016.

A person or a face with an expression? Each face is different\, has a story and is on a journey. Only when you connect with the person in front of your viewfinder\, will you be able to narrate a story. Not all portraits are captured with a word\, smile or cheese but are captured without a word or giving direction to the subject. You make a portrait when they are ready to express their true self. Welcome to Mohan Krishnappa’s journey of portraits through his viewfinder. \n\n  \n  \nAbout the Speaker:            \nMr Mohan Krishnappa\n \nMohan Krishnappa was born on 3rd May\,1982 in Bengaluru. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Science and a Master’s in Information Technology. Currently\, he is working for an IT company as Solution Consultant. Being an introvert during childhood he was always silent and an excellent listener. He was interested in sports\, and painting and was part of the KSCA divisions 5 and 4 through a private cricket club during his college days. Later travelling and trekking in the Himalayas became a passion and he was introduced to landscape and wildlife photography through a friend. That was the best thing that happened to him along with an introduction to the world of DSLR cameras. Back in 2009-10\, he got to know about YPS through an article in the Deccan Herald newspaper and visited YPS at Yavanika\, State Youth Center and enrolled as a member. Thus hobby became a more responsible passion. He also enrolled on a 5-day workshop conducted by eminent photographer Mr Anand Sharan\, where he was introduced to portrait photography. This also helped him to break the introvert barrier as he had to interact with people to connect with them. He says\, “I still find my peace in forests not while photographing the elusive stripes\, but just to enjoy the raw beauty around\, sulk into myself and  just to breathe the fresh air.” Juggling between career and passion\, he has set up a small home studio for portraits and spends most of his time exploring the lighting setup on his wife and two-year-old daughter. Of late he is working on fine art painterly portrait editing and blending using overlays and textures. \nInsta handle:  md.art.studio \nWebsite:  www.mdartstudio.comLanguage: English URL:https://www.ypsbengaluru.com/event/yps-saturday-meet-timeless-portraiture/ LOCATION:YPS Hall\, Youth Photographic Society\, Sree Kanteerava Stadium\, Bengaluru\, Karnataka\, India CATEGORIES:YPS Meets ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.ypsbengaluru.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/YPS-Saturday-Meet-Web-1344x744-5.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Youth Photographic Society":MAILTO:contactus@ypsbengaluru.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20221126T173000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20221126T183000 DTSTAMP:20260404T041221 CREATED:20221121T150802Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221122T144808Z UID:14081-1669483800-1669487400@www.ypsbengaluru.com SUMMARY:Vietnam - From Above and Below DESCRIPTION:YPS Google Meet | Nov 26\, Sat | 5.30 PM | S2 E7 | Google Meet\n  \nVietnam is a paradise for photographers.

As is the case in many other forms of photography\, it is not just the pictures you get at the end of the day (end of night in this case!). The whole experience of spending long hours under star studded skies and collecting photons arriving from thousands and millions of light years away has no parallel. It has created a lot of interest in India among astronomy enthusiasts as well as photography hobbyists in the last few years. This session is an introduction to this fascinating field that presents endless possibilities. As the cliché goes\, this is a discipline where sky is the limit. Or should we say\, even sky is not the limit! \n\nAbout the Speaker:                                                                        \n \nMr. Chandrashekar G \nChandrashekar is into astronomy since 1980s and has wide experience in making and using telescopes. He is active in popularising astronomy through talks\, skywatching programs etc.\, at schools\, colleges\, astronomy seminars and even in the Bengaluru Planetarium.  \nHe started his astrophotography journey with manually driven equipment that looks almost comical in today’s high-tech world. Over the years he has acquired some sophisticated equipment that makes the Astro-life a lot easier. He would be speaking on the basics of deep sky astrophotography along with some of his learnings from years of doing astronomy. \n  \nSocial handles :  \nchandrainsky@gmail.com \nfacebook: Chandrashekar Gopalarao \n  \nLanguage: English \nDo join us on 12 November\, 2022\, 5:30 pm IST on Google Meet at the usual coordinates \nAlso request you to join the session 15 mins prior to check your audio and video functionality. \nThe session starts at sharp 5.30 PM IST \nHere is how to participate: \nClick here or visit the below Google Meet Link on the day of the event\nGoogle Meet Link: https://meet.google.com/iif-znku-vyt \nIn case of any issues in connecting to the meeting\, request to please call us on our official number by clicking here or simply dial: +91 9513-YPS-BLR (+91 9513-977-257) \nYou can also WhatsApp us by clicking here (or on the icon below) or by sending a WhatsApp message on the above mentioned official number. \n \nNote: Registration is NOT necessary and look forward to seeing you all this Saturday at 5:15 PM IST. \n\nSome salient features of YPS Saturday Meets: \n\nExclusively for Members.\nHear and be heard – These are interactive sessions and not talk shows.\nDiscuss and learn from real Member Pictures for absolute learning for every one.\nOpinion from experts and knowledge from everyone who wants to share.\n\nSome Google Meet Self-Disciplines to be followed to make the experience memorable for everyone: \n\nDo not interrupt when something is being presented.

Glassware\, water and smoke represent each of these states. Individually or in combination these three can be photographed in quite interesting ways. Add to this a pinch of imagination\, a whole new world begins to emerge. This new world is filled with lots of fun\, awe and a healthy dose of frustration too. The images you will get to see are Girish Mayachari’s  experiments with glassware\, water and smoke. \n « ‹ of 5 › » \n \nAbout the Speaker\nMr. Girish Mayachari\, AFIAP\, AFIP\, cMoL \n\n\n\nFascination for photography started at a very young age for Mr. Girish Mayachari. However it was only after he started working that he took his first steps in the world of photography. Being an avid trekker and a nature lover gave him ample opportunities to take his camera along and shoot what caught his eye. His  journey started with shooting landscapes\, wildlife\, birds and macro. As he keeps saying\, he is the cat that got killed. Consequently it was not long before he was trying his hand at other genres of photography like portraiture\, fashion\, table top / still life\, composites\, astro-photography and a slew of other genres too (assuming there are more). Currently he experiments with light painting which is keeping him occupied. He hopes this journey of learning continues. \nFollow Girish on Social:\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mountainlord19/\nIG: https://www.instagram.com/girishm19/ \n\n\n\n\nLanguage: English \nDo join us on 05 Mar\, 2022\, 5:30 pm IST on Google Meet at the usual coordinates \nAlso request you to join the session 15 mins in prior to check your audio and video functionality. \nThe session starts at sharp 5.30 PM IST \nHere is how to participate: \nClick here or visit the below Google Meet Link on the day of the event\nGoogle Meet Link: https://meet.google.com/jgi-npbe-sjt \nIn case of any issues in connecting to the meeting\, request to please call us on our official number by clicking here or simply dial: +91 9513-YPS-BLR (+91 9513-977-257) \nYou can also WhatsApp us by clicking here (or on the icon below) or by sending a WhatsApp message on the above mentioned official number. \n \nNote: Registration is NOT necessary and look forward to seeing you all this Saturday at 5:15 PM IST. \n\nSome salient features of YPS Saturday Meets: \n\nExclusively for Members.\nHear and be heard – These are interactive sessions and not talk shows.\nDiscuss and learn from real Member Pictures for absolute learning for every one.\nOpinion from experts and knowledge from everyone who wants to share.\n\nSome Google Meet Self-Disciplines to be followed to make the experience memorable for everyone: \n\nDo not interrupt when something is being presented.
