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.
