SUMMARY:YPS Saturday Meet - Timeless Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:YPS Saturday Meet | Dec 03\, Sat | 6:30 PM IST | State Youth Center\nA journey into the world of classic portraiture – What do you think when you hear the word portrait? 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

SUMMARY:Underwater Macro - taking oceans to people’s heart
DESCRIPTION:YPS Saturday Meet | Dec 10\, Sat | 5.30 PM | S2 E8 | On-line Meet\nAs a nature photographer\, Mr Kedar Bhide always felt the need to create advocates for a species or a landscape or an ecosystem through his photographs\, in order to highlight the sustainability and survivability of such elements from anthropogenic pressures. 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 company is involved in Fine Art Archival printing\, Photography services\, Community Initiatives & Environmental services.

He has been instrumental in two first reports of snake species from India\, Sindh Awl Headed Snake from Rajasthan and Kaulback Pit Viper from Arunachal Pradesh. 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. He has also done a solo exhibition ‘Top\, Bottom & Everything in Between’ in October 2017 at Jehangir Art Gallery to showcase Biodiversity of India which was very well received.

SUMMARY:YPS Saturday Meet - OUR pro TRAITS
DESCRIPTION:YPS Saturday Meet | Dec 17\, Sat | 4:00 PM IST | State Youth Center\nWe all\, literally everyone with a mobile camera\, are photographers now. However\, it is so that we do not have a good portrait of ourselves but only a passport photo taken ages ago which we keep circulating forever.  \nThis Saturday\, let us learn how to shoot a decent portrait\, self or of some good soul.  \nPortraits are not just about creating pixels and storing them in a storage device but a way to portray what and who the subject is\, in other words\, giving life to it. And we can only get/capture such portraits when we ‘know’ the person standing in front of the lens. So this session\, being the last session of 2022\, let us meet all\, understand each other and get to capture a good portrait or get captured! Don’t forget to bring your camera! \nAbout the Mentor:       \nHardik P Shah\n\n\n“My journey of photography started as a hobby which turned out to be my passion within a short span of time. I had no idea that my hobby of clicking would take me here today. Photography has changed my vision of seeing things. \nIt was when I was in Hyderabad as a software engineer\, that I took up photography seriously. Right after my engineering I was selected for one of the MNCs and post-training I was posted to Hyderabad. Bengaluru\, being my hometown\, was my choice of preference but somewhere I believe that what happens is for good and photography is the best thing that happened to me. Working as an IT professional and being in front of the computer all the time\, photography was something that was most exciting and relaxing. With time I have understood and believe that photography is not just about picking up a camera\, start hitting the shutter. It is something much beyond it. If I’m asked to define photography I would say it is an art of capturing the subject in front of you in the most creative way. I like taking portraits\, landscapes and abstracts and prefer shooting in monochrome as it touches my heart and soul. I like to shoot my subjects from a totally different perspective.” \nhttps://linktr.ee/hardikpshah25\nhttps://instagram.com/hardikpshah25\nhttps://facebook.com/hardikpshah25\nhttps://vimeo.com/hardikpshah25 \nLighting Partner:\n \nOur Lighting Partner will be Godox. All the participants will get an opportunity to experience the world’s best light shapers! \n\nRequest everyone to arrive 15 mins in prior. \nLanguage: English
